Through our volunteer efforts and community partnerships, we
strive to provide low-income and in-need users with free or
low-cost Internet service as reliably as possible. Our service
is best-effort and will not necessarily match the performance of
paid or commercial Internet service.
Our network includes site locations throughout King County and
Tacoma, where we are able to provide coverage within specific
neighborhoods near the sites. Please refer to the list of
locations below to see if your neighborhood is covered.
Within these coverage areas, we can offer either home-based WiFi
or mobile (phone-based) Internet access options.
You will need to register with us and receive our SIM card to
connect to the network. You may also need to receive a compatible mobile phone or
stationary home hotspot from us that supports our wireless frequencies.
We expect that speeds would typically range from 30-90 Mbps
download/2-14 Mbps upload. Part of the purpose of this pilot
project is to determine the technology’s real performance and
suitability for our use case.
The speed of your service will depend roughly on:
