JACKSONVILLE, Fla., Updated March 17th, 2025 <\/strong>\u2013 IQ Fiber<\/a>, North Florida\u2019s only local residential fiber- optic internet service provider, has activated its network in Gainesville<\/a> and has begun serving customers in the area. IQ Fiber\u2019s initial investment in Gainesville and Alachua County is now estimated at $50 million and represents the company\u2019s accelerated growth beyond Jacksonville.<\/p>\n

\u201cIQ Fiber is bringing high-speed internet to a community that is in desperate need of it,\u201d said Gainesville City Commissioner Bryan Eastman, whose district includes the first network area. \u201cWe\u2019ve had a lack of competition in our area for decades, which means expensive, slow internet and no options for our residents. I\u2019m excited to see new fiber infrastructure bringing modern, fiber speed broadband that\u2019s been lacking for so long.\u201d<\/p>\n

Headquartered in Jacksonville with a new office in Gainesville<\/a>, IQ Fiber is deploying its network across Alachua, Duval, Clay, Nassau and St. Johns counties, with expansions underway in Savannah<\/a> (Georgia), Charleston<\/a> (South Carolina) and the Chesapeake Bay region (Maryland). The company has over 200 local employees serving customers in the Jacksonville<\/a> and Gainesville<\/a> areas.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are excited to launch our Gainesville<\/a> network and bring the first modern, reliable and customer-friendly internet choice to the community,\u201d said Ted Schremp, CEO of IQ Fiber. \u201cIn just three years, we have established a significant presence across our home in North Florida and delivered on our promise to simplify and deliver a personal customer experience in a way that no other provider has been able to achieve.\u201d<\/p>\n

IQ Fiber is closing the gap between available fiber-optic internet and residents in North Florida. IQ Fiber\u2019s 100% fiber-optic network is capable of symmetrical speeds of up to 10 gigabits per second and is far superior to telephone or cable-based internet.

IQ Fiber offers simple month-to-month rates with no fees, surcharges or surprise price increases.
