"With nearly 42,500 households and businesses now able to connect to Greenlight's network in Northeast Pennsylvania-and several thousands more to come online by the end of the year-the company's expansion across Wilkes-Barre, and continued buildout throughout Scranton, marks a significant step in delivering next-generation connectivity to the region."
"This latest expansion builds upon Greenlight's 2025 acquisition of Loop Internet, which now operates as Greenlight Networks. Loop's network footprint complemented Greenlight's current and planned service areas while providing a critical base of operations in Scranton, along with experienced personnel and local resources."
"The continued expansion of Greenlight Networks' fiber is a big plus for our regional community. With increased remote work and schooling, and the advances in A.I., high-speed, reliable internet is no longer just a convenience-it's a necessity for families and businesses."
Greenlight Networks is accelerating fiber-to-the-home network construction across Wilkes-Barre, Scranton, and surrounding Northeast Pennsylvania communities in 2026 with a $24 million investment. Nearly 42,500 households and businesses can now connect to the network, with several thousand more expected online by year-end. The expansion builds on Greenlight's 2025 acquisition of Loop Internet, which now operates as Greenlight Networks. This acquisition added over 50 local employees and provided a critical operations base in Scranton. Construction is progressing in phases across multiple communities including Scranton, Wilkes-Barre, Nanticoke, Drums, Hazleton, Kingston, and Mountain Top. Residents can sign up for neighborhood updates as construction advances.
