Ting's fiber internet now accessible throughout the Greater Sandpoint region

DOVER, Idaho, Nov. 8, 2021 /PRNewswire/ - Today Ting Internet, a division of Tucows (NASDAQ: TCX) (TSX: TC), announced that its highly anticipated fiber internet is now available for residents and businesses in Dover, Idaho, specifically within Dover Bay and surrounding area.

As a leading fiber internet provider, Ting's mission is to bring the speed and reliability of fiber internet to residents and businesses across the country. This mission is especially important in communities where, historically, access to dependable internet has been challenging.

"We've been active members in the Greater Sandpoint community for over three years now and have been proudly providing Ting Internet in Sandpoint and Ponderay," said Kari Saccomanno, Ting Manager for the Greater Sandpoint Area. "There has been a tremendous response to our service and today we're thrilled to add Dover to our serviceable regions!"

Prior to Ting's local launch, the Greater Sandpoint area was limited to an older generation of cable internet that was prone to slower service and network interruptions. However, with Ting's fiber internet you do not share bandwidth with your neighbors, guaranteeing residents and businesses higher speeds and service reliability.

Ting will continue to expand its serviceable neighborhoods in Dover throughout 2021, with construction in surrounding regions actively ongoing while the weather permits.

With a three-tiered pricing model and no data caps, Ting's symmetrical residential internet is being offered for $39 per month for 50 Mbps; $69 per month for 200 Mbps; and $89 per month for Ting's gigabit fiber internet with 1,000 Mbps.

Customizable plans for businesses start at $139 per month, while enterprise internet service levels, installations and pricing are customized based on needs and can be discussed with the Ting Internet enterprise team.

Ting also provides bulk service to homeowners associations, apartment complexes, and other multi-dwelling units. Locally, the Dover Bay Property Owners Association worked with Ting to secure a bulk internet package, providing fiber internet to nearly 300 homes within the region.
