West Canal Broadband Survey

2021 is a big year for broadband on the Olympic Peninsula. Funding is coming from the state and national levels to improve connections for everyone, even if you're in a remote area.

But there's a problem: nobody has a good map of where service is needed (read more here if you're curious why.) This survey is an effort to build a high-quality local map of customer demand for broadband, and where service exists.

Your privacy matters. We're collecting this data to help the community, and won't sell your data. Click here to read more.

Is it fast enough?

Asked differently, do you frequently suffer buffering or disconnects when using the internet?

Does your provider offer faster speeds?

By running a speed test, you agree to the Measurement Lab Privacy Policy. This is the speed test system used by Washington State and the PUDs to measure speeds.

Your survey contents, email, and address all remain private.
