KWIKOM Breaks Ground for Fiber Internet Expansion into Gardner, KS

Company News, Fiber Internet Service News, Internet Service News, News

KWIKOM announced a major development this week that will bring ultra-high-speed fiber broadband services to Northern Gardner and surrounding rural areas. Construction has recently begun and will rapidly expand in the coming weeks and months.

With over a decade of experience providing ISP services in Johnson County, KWIKOM has been a pioneer in investing in rural broadband infrastructure throughout the region. Zach Peres, President and Founder of KWIKOM, expressed his gratitude for the support received, saying, “The progress we’ve made to date would not have been possible without the level of support and collaboration we have received from the City of Gardner and the State of Kansas’ Office of Broadband Development.”

Residents and businesses within KWIKOM’s Gardner fiber area will benefit from internet speeds of up to 2 Gbps for residents and up to 10 Gbps for businesses, along with a range of phone and video services. The state-of-the-art 100 Gbps backbone design ensures that Gardner will be well-prepared to meet the growing bandwidth demands of the future.

Todd Winters, Mayor of Gardner, emphasized the importance of this expansion, stating, “This partnership with KWIKOM is going to make a tremendous impact on our community. Access to reliable and high-speed broadband is essential for our residents and businesses to thrive in today’s digital age. This initiative aligns perfectly with our vision for a digitally connected Gardner.”

From telecommuting to telemedicine and distance learning to businesses relying on the cloud, having access to reliable and affordable broadband is now a fundamental requirement. KWIKOM’s $6 million investment in Gardner’s fiber future will enable phase one customers to access fiber Internet and phone services by early 2024, with phase two customers soon to follow.

KWIKOM expands fiber Internet to communities throughout Linn County

Fiber Internet Service News

KWIKOM continued its exciting expansion plans last week by hosting an official groundbreaking for Linn County, KS.

KWIKOM President and Founder Zach Peres was joined by Linn County Commission Chair Danny McCullough, and KWIKOM Director of Government Affairs John Terry at the Linn County Courthouse in Mound City to mark the occasion. Representatives from the City of Blue Mound, the City of Parker, and the Linn County Journal were also on hand to celebrate Linn County’s partnership with KWIKOM to develop over 40 miles of new fiber-optic infrastructure in Western Linn County. When completed, the project will deliver 10 gigabit capable fiber-optic internet and a scalable fiber backbone that can be expanded upon to meet future broadband demands in rural Linn County.

Construction in Linn County is actively underway between Greeley and Parker, and much of Parker already has fiber in the ground.

According to John Terry, “We truly appreciate the efforts of Linn County in addressing the critical need for broadband, and we share the belief that the choice to live and work in rural Kansas should not mean being shut out from quality internet access. We look forward to working with Linn County on future Grant projects, and there are several on the near horizon.”

While this project provides an excellent start, KWIKOM recognizes the need for further expansion to bring fiber to additional parts of Linn County. In fact, as part of the Kansas Office of Broadband Development LINC project, KWIKOM applied for a middle mile extension that will increase the fiber backbone from Blue Mound to the Anderson County line along K-31. Should this grant succeed, it would allow KWIKOM to build upon this excellent foundation to eventually serve all of Western Linn County.

KWIKOM has been actively providing broadband wireless Internet in Linn County since 2017 and has continued to invest in the County as the demand for services grows in areas that are traditionally overlooked and underserved. Additionally, as a participant in the Federal Affordable Connectivity Program, KWIKOM will offer discounted internet to qualified applicants, providing substantial savings to those most in need.

As part of KWIKOM’s longstanding commitment to deliver affordable, reliable broadband connectivity in Franklin County, Kansas, we are pleased to announce that construction of a state-of-the-art fiber network is underway in Ottawa and Wellsville, and will soon begin in Williamsburg and Homewood.

In addition, through a partnership with the State of Kansas Office of Broadband Development, The City of Pomona, the City of Quenemo, and the Franklin County Development Council, construction is in progress to bring fiber to Pomona, Quenemo, and over 20 square miles of rural area between Ottawa and Quenemo.

KWIKOM’s fiber-optic expansion project in Franklin County is a focused part of our ongoing efforts to connect our friends and neighbors throughout Kansas with high quality, affordable fiber-optic internet. KWIKOM began its investment in Franklin County a decade ago to help bridge the digital divide for the historically underserved, and to ensure Franklin County has a network that is technically capable of meeting the present and future technology needs of its residents and businesses.

“Broadband access is essential in today’s digital age, serving as the backbone of economic growth and community development,” said Ryland Miller, President & CEO of the Ottawa Area Chamber of Commerce. “KWIKOM’s initiative promises to invigorate our local economy, boost our businesses and enhance the quality of life of our citizens. Broadband expansion is a game-changer and a signal to the region that Ottawa is primed for growth.”

KWIKOM’s nearly $12 million dollar capital investment in Franklin County will provide almost 200 miles of fiber-optic infrastructure to connect over 7,200 homes, businesses, anchor institutions, and agricultural facilities in the County. This expansion will fully serve every home in Ottawa, Wellsville, Pomona, and Williamsburg as well as much of the surrounding rural community.

KWIKOM will offer symmetrical broadband packages ranging from 100 Mbps to 2 Gbps for residents and up to 10 Gbps for businesses, with customizable, DIA packages available to businesses and anchor institutions.

“We appreciate and value the relationships we have developed with the residents, businesses, and leaders in Franklin County over the past decade as we have grown our broadband service throughout the County. We are excited to bring fiber Internet service along with the quality local customer service, technical support, and professional installation our Franklin County customers and partners have come to expect from us,” said Zach Peres, KWIKOM’s President and Founder. “We would like to extend a sincere thank you to all of our employees, friends, and customers in Franklin County for your support now, and over the last ten years.”

According to Mike Brigman, President of WANRack, KWIKOM’s parent company, “I applaud the work of Zach Peres and the entire KWIKOM team in working alongside community leaders to address their broadband needs and to bring high speed internet access to residents and businesses across the County. The team is working diligently to begin providing services to residents and business before the end of 2023.”
