All-fiber, symmetrical speed network from Fidium offers new opportunities for entertainment, economic development, remote learning, telehealth and more, with plans as low as $30

LINCOLN, Maine — April 28, 2025 — Fidium, Maine’s best internet provider according to CNET, has expanded its multi-gig, symmetrical speed internet service to Lincoln, bringing its future-proof fiber network to more than 2,400 homes and businesses. Fidium’s expansion of its all-fiber network, which began in January, brings all the benefits that come with access to a fiber broadband connection to Lincoln.

“Fidium’s arrival is good for Lincoln and surrounding areas, especially given the timing of further delays for the long awaited BEAD program. Previously unserved and underserved residents and businesses will not have to wait for access to state-of-the-art fiber connections,” said Cathy Moison, Broadband Committee Chair and former Councilor for Lincoln. “With Fidium’s fiber network in our community, the dream of accessing remote schooling, commerce, telehealth and business opportunities has now become a reality.”

Fiber broadband drives economic growth, in particular for rural communities, increasing business growth by 213% and leading to 44% higher GDP. For individuals, fiber access resulted in self-employment growth of 10% and increased per capita income by 18%. Fiber also increases real estate values, as single-family homes with fiber access have a 4.9% higher value than those without.

“In expanding fiber access, we are proud to help build the future in Lincoln”, said Sarah Davis, vice president of Market Development for Fidium. “Fiber brings tremendous benefits and transforms how we connect to one another, especially in rural communities, increasing access to educational, economic, healthcare and entertainment opportunities and options. We are excited to bring the benefits of Fidium’s fiber network these and more communities across Maine.”

Today, more than 360,000 Maine homes and businesses have access to Fidium, including Bangor, Dexter, Dover-Foxcroft, and Weston, with additional communities being connected soon across the state.
