A new subsea fiber-optic cable, one of two planned to serve Western Alaska starting in 2024, is expected to improve internet download speeds in Bethel by a factor of 200 while also lowering service costs.
An internet outage on Oct. 8, 2022 knocked out Bethel store Alaska Commercial’s ability to accept credit or debit cards for several hours.
Hoffman said that that the first phase of the $42 million project is scheduled to be done by the end of 2024. “This is absolutely going to be night and day. We see this as the first step, and hopefully connecting more communities on both rivers as funding becomes available,” Leonard said. “The microwave network, it’s solid,” Handyside said. “Microwave is a great technology for delivering conductivity. It’s fast, but there’s a maximum capacity that it will reach. There’s a limit to the amount of data that it can carry.”
