Fiber optic expansion in Ostprignitz-Ruppin: Register now for free!
In an exciting development for the Ostprignitz-Ruppin district, epcan GmbH from Vreden has been awarded the contract for the subsidized broadband expansion. This project aims to provide in-building fiber optic connectivity to underserved households in the region. The demand pooling, which started in May 2025, is now extended until October 13, 2025. This gives over 18,700 households the chance to register for a connection free of charge. OpenPR reports that it is particularly important that citizens benefit from these modern connection options.
Signing up for the free fiber optic connection is a simple process. Those interested can check their address on the epcan website and register directly for the connection. There is also the option of switching to a discounted tariff contract, which is also available until the deadline. A fiber optic connection not only provides fast and stable internet connections, but also increases the value of your property in the long term. Those interested can find the link to the availability check and further information at epcan.
Broadband coverage in rural areas
The federal government has set itself the goal of achieving a nationwide supply of fiber optic connections and the latest mobile communications standard by 2030. This project is supported in particular by the Federal Ministry of Food and Agriculture (BMLEH), as a powerful digital infrastructure is essential in rural communities and agriculture. [BMLEH].
A current dashboard analyzes mobile and broadband coverage in rural areas. The evaluation shows that many households and farms unfortunately do not yet achieve the necessary speed of at least 30 Mbit/s. On the contrary: there are still many “white spots” where the infrastructure is lacking. Nevertheless, the dashboard also shows positive developments and gives those responsible valuable information on how to improve the situation.
epcan's initiative in Ostprignitz-Ruppin is a step in the right direction. By giving households additional time to secure a connection, extending demand aggregation will pave the way for a better digital future. The possibilities that fast internet access offers should not be underestimated - be it for home office, streaming or just reliable online access.
