Company’s next-gen connectivity is fueling opportunity for Van Wert and Delphos

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — June 25, 2025 — Brightspeed, the nation’s third-largest fiber broadband builder, is connecting thousands of people across western Ohio to its state-of-the-art, high-speed fiber network. More than 8,000 homes and businesses in Van Wert and Delphos now have access to the country’s fastest internet service, as determined by HighSpeedInternet.com’s Annual Service Provider Review 2025.

According to Broadband Now, Ohio ranks 30th among states when it comes to internet coverage, speed and availability. As a result, many in the Buckeye state are missing out on the kind of connectivity they need to thrive in today’s economy.
