Low Latency

We Build Awesome Internet

Based in the scenic city of The Dalles, Oregon, Actual Broadband prides itself on being a premium internet service provider with strong local roots. This locally owned and operated company is driven by a passion for delivering superior connectivity solutions that meet the evolving needs of our community. Utilizing a blend of cutting-edge technology and a deep understanding of local infrastructure, Actual Broadband is dedicated to offering unparalleled internet performance and reliability.

Our network design philosophy is centered around resilience and performance. We’ve studied previous outages affecting providers in the Gorge and realized the vulnerability of shared pathways to Portland. In response, we’ve designed our network backbone with diverse paths, ensuring continuity of service in the face of potential disruptions. We employ DDOS protection measures to further maintain connectivity even during a DDOS attack.

We don’t just talk about low latency; we engineer our network to make it a reality. Each point of presence (PoP) in our network is meticulously routed to minimize unnecessary network hops, thus ensuring the lowest latency possible. This is particularly crucial in today’s digital era, where work-from-home requirements, video conferencing, VoIP calls, online gaming, streaming services, and browsing demand near-instant data transmission.

Leveraging our connection to the QLife fiber ring, we are capable of delivering top-tier fiber internet service to anyone connected to the QLife system. Additionally, for those areas not yet served by fiber, our strategically located micro PoP sites deliver high-speed, low latency wireless internet connections, expanding the reach of our quality service.

At Actual Broadband, your internet experience isn’t a mere line in our budget report. It’s our priority.

About Us

Actual Broadband was born to challenge the status quo and deliver what we term as the “Quality of Internet”. We ensure an exceptional digital experience with our tier 1 upstream connections that promise high-quality, uninterrupted internet with unmatched speed and reliability.
 
We take pride in our unique approach of ‘peering’— a technical term that simply means we’re directly connected to over 100 organizations, including heavyweights like Netflix, Google, and Amazon. Imagine a highway that bypasses all the traffic, taking you straight to your destination without any stop signs, traffic lights, or detours. That’s what peering does for your internet connection. It means your data doesn’t have to travel across the busy public internet; instead, it has a direct route to these major providers. This results in faster loading times, less buffering, and an overall smoother internet experience, whether you’re streaming your favorite show, browsing, or conducting business.
 
We founded Actual Broadband to give local Gorge businesses and residents access to the quality internet service they deserve, an aspect neglected by most existing providers. Unlike larger corporations, that view customers merely as numbers on a spreadsheet, we see our customers as integral to our mission. We don’t just deliver a service; we forge a partnership with our community.
 
Where others see opportunities for profit, we see opportunities for improvement. We design our network for maximum performance and customer satisfaction, not maximum revenue. At Actual Broadband, we’re not about profits. We’re about you.
