For years, Highlands Fiber Network (HFN) has delivered the fast, reliable fiber internet that keeps Issaquah Highlands connected. From work calls and online school to streaming, gaming and smart home technology, HFN has supported it all. Now, that experience is about to get even better.
HFN is upgrading the community to a brand-new fiber network that continues the quality you know and gives you more speed, more reliability and more room to grow.
The best part? Once your home is migrated, you will enjoy up to 2.5 times faster speeds at no additional cost.
Here is what that looks like:
- 10 Mbps plans ➜ 25 Mbps
- 100 Mbps plans ➜ 250 Mbps
- 1 Gbps plans ➜ 2.5 Gbps
These new speeds put Issaquah Highlands ahead of national averages, especially for upload performance. That means smoother video calls, quicker uploads and less waiting.
More Devices, Less Stress
HFN already makes it easy for homes to connect dozens of devices. The upgrade simply gives you more space to do it all at once.
Think about a typical evening at home. The TV is streaming in 4K, the kids are upstairs watching YouTube, someone is downloading a new app, and the thermostat and doorbell camera are quietly running in the background. With more speed available, the connection continues to perform at its best.
Gaming That Moves Faster
HFN has long supported smooth, low-latency gaming—and the upgrade takes that even further. A large game update that once took an hour on a 100 Mbps plan now finishes in under 25 minutes at 250 Mbps. On the new 2.5 Gbps plan, that same update can take only minutes. Whether you play competitively or casually, you will enjoy faster downloads and smoother gameplay.
Clearer Video Calls
Clear, dependable video calls are part of the HFN experience. With more speed, they stay sharp even as other family members stream, download or attend classes online. Everyone can connect at the same time, with the same consistent quality.
Stress-Free Work and Learning
HFN already helps families work, learn and play online without worry. The upgrade makes it even easier. Uploads finish faster, streaming stays reliable and cloud tools work instantly. Parents and students can stay focused while the rest of the household enjoys entertainment without missing a beat.
Ready for the Upgrade?
HFN has always delivered a network built for what comes next. From 4K streaming to smart home living, technology never stops evolving—and this upgrade keeps Issaquah Highlands ahead of the curve. You will continue to enjoy the reliable service you know today, now with even more power for tomorrow.
