Not all "Fiber" networks are built the same.

Some providers use fiber for part of their network, then use a different type of connection for the final stretch to your home. Others, like Amherst Communications, use fiber all the way to the home. That's known as Fiber-to-the-Home, or FTTH.

What does that mean for you?
✅ Fast, symmetrical upload and download speeds
✅ A fiber connection that runs all the way to your home
✅ Lower latency for things like gaming and video calls
✅ A network built to support the technology and bandwidth needs of the future

The bottom line: It's good to know where your fiber connection ends, as it can impact your experience.

As summer winds down, we're wishing a bittersweet farewell to our seasonal help Otto Anglemyer, today as he heads off to UW-Madison to study Biology.

Over the past few months, Otto became an important part of the team, helping with a lot of the hands-on work that keeps our network running smoothly. From digging and preparing sites for fiber work to removing pedestals, clearing areas for construction, and helping with maintenance around our facilities, his work was often physical and behind the scenes, but it made a real difference.

When asked about his experience and what he learned, Otto said he got better at navigating the street names and gained a much better understanding of fiber Internet and our service area. "I don't know if everyone knows just how far Amherst's network reaches. I hadn't realized they serve all the way down to Coloma or over to Iola and Waupaca to the east."

Thanks for a great summer and best wishes at school, Otto! We're grateful for the hard work and positive attitude you brought every day. Even though we'll miss having you around, we're excited to see where the next chapter takes you!

Each year, our Customer Appreciation event gives us a chance to step away from the day-to-day, spend time with the people we serve, hear their stories and learn more about how they’re using our services in everyday life.

It’s also an opportunity for our customers to get to know the people behind Amherst Communications. Those personal connections are a big part of what makes being a local provider different, and we truly value the opportunity to celebrate our customers and the communities we share!
