The State of Ohio is working to make sure every Ohioan has access to high-speed internet and needs your help!
We want to improve newly released federal maps showing internet availability and speed in Ohio. From now through Jan. 13, 2023, you can help provide crucial feedback to the federal government that will ensure Ohio receives as much support as possible to expand high-speed internet.
You can help spread the word to all in your community and throughout the state in multiple ways:
- Check the reported availability of internet at your home address by going to broadbandmap.fcc.gov. If the provider information should be updated, submit a challenge to dispute the information presented. If you need a step-by-step guide, you can find an informational video at this link. Please complete this assessment by Jan. 13, 2023.
- Share this message with your friends and family! If they do not have high-speed internet available at their homes, help them complete Step 1.
- Share the attached poster on your social media accounts.
- Share this opportunity the next time you attend a community event (for example, your place of worship, community meetings, town halls).
Note: If you, or anyone you know, needs help reviewing the Ohio information in the federal map or submitting a challenge against the reporting, you can follow this step-by-step guide here. You may also reach out to your local library branch.
Note: Within 60 days of submitting a challenge, an Internet Provider may reach out to you by phone or email to gather additional information about your internet situation. For answers to any questions, contact us at broadbandohio@development.ohio.gov.
