Gigabit service now available!

  • News

Kaslo infoNet Society is thrilled to announce the launch of our new internet packages, which include the first gigabit fibre optic to the home service available in the West Kootenays. As a local non-profit, we are proud to bring this cutting-edge technology to our community and provide affordable, reliable, and high-speed internet to all.

Fibre optic technology is the gold standard in internet connectivity, delivering speeds up to 100 times faster than traditional copper wires. With fibre optic to the home, you can download and upload large files in seconds, stream ultra-high-definition videos without buffering, and enjoy online gaming and video conferencing with crystal-clear quality. It’s a game-changer for anyone who works, studies, plays, or communicates online.

But we are more than just a technology provider. We are a part of the community, and we care about the people and the places we serve. We are a non-profit organization, which means that we reinvest our revenues into improving our services, upgrading our infrastructure, and supporting local initiatives that make a difference. We are committed to transparency, accountability, and customer satisfaction, and we always put our members first.

Here are some of the features of our new internet packages:

  • Gigabit fibre optic to the home: the fastest, most reliable, and most future-proof technology available.
  • Unlimited data: no caps, no throttling, no hidden fees. You can use as much data as you want, whenever you want.
  • Symmetrical speeds: you get the same upload and download speeds, which is essential for tasks like video conferencing, cloud storage, and online backups.
  • Multiple plans to choose from: we offer a range of packages to suit different needs and budgets, from basic internet to premium services with extra features.
 
However, please understand that we may not be able to provide immediate service to all locations at this time. We are building this infrastructure from scratch, and can only go as fast our limited resources allow. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, but please know that we are working tirelessly to expand our network and bring our services to as many people as possible. 
 
To sign up for our new internet packages, simply visit our website, select your plan, and fill out the form. We will contact you shortly to schedule the installation of your fibre optic connection. Our installation process is quick, easy, and non-invasive, and we will make sure to minimize any disruption to your property.
 
We believe that everyone in the West Kootenays deserves access to high-speed internet, regardless of their location, income, or background. That’s why we are committed to bridging the digital divide and empowering our community with the tools and the resources they need to thrive in the digital age. Join us today and experience the difference of local, non-profit, gigabit fibre optic to the home internet!
 
We are incredibly grateful to have received funding and support, throughout the years, from the Province of BC, the Northern Development Initiative Trust, Innovation, Science, and Economic Development Canada, the CRTC, and locally from the RDCK, the Columbia Basin Trust and the Columbia Basin Broadband Corporation, and especially the Village of Kaslo.
