Sparklight, Formerly Fidelity Communications, Voted Best Internet Provider in Phelps County for Eighth Consecutive Year
ROLLA, Mo. (January 27, 2025) – Sparklight®, formerly Fidelity Communications, was recently named “Best Internet Provider” by Phelps County Weekly readers for the 2024 Best of Phelps County special section. This is the eighth consecutive year the company has received the distinction, placing first out of five internet providers in the category. The contest generates over 200,000 votes annually.
“We’re honored to be recognized for delivering the best internet service in Rolla, St. James and other great cities across Phelps County,” said Sam McGill, Sparklight Director, Regional Operations North Central. “As we expand and enhance our network, our commitment remains steadfast: delivering fiber-powered technology, seamless connectivity and the neighborly, reliable service our customers deserve.”
Sparklight offers speeds up to 2 Gigabit for residential customers. With investments of more than $1 billion over the past three years across the company’s footprint – $45 million of that in central Missouri – the company is laying the groundwork to launch speeds as fast as 10 Gigabits (10G) and beyond. Delivering speed 10 times faster than today’s networks, 10G will transform the customer experience, creating new possibilities for smart cities, connected homes, virtual and augmented reality and business innovation.
The company is also dedicated to enriching Phelps County communities through meaningful support. Over the past four years, the company has awarded nearly $26,000 in grants to charitable organizations, including the Hope Alliance of Missouri, Touch of Hope, Thayer R-II School, the El Dorado Springs R-2 School/Hunger Warriors, Imagination Library of West Plains, The Community Partnership and Rolla Robotics. Additionally, the company donated Chromebooks to the Rolla School District, empowering students with essential tools for learning.
