Their father, late John Davis, built the company up to its potential with his unwavering entrepreneurship spirit. Over the last decade, Fidelity has been steadily acquiring smaller cable and phone operators to increase their userbase substantially.
Fidelity Communications’ largest acquisition took place in early 2012 when they integrated 14 different network systems from Cobridge Communications into their existing system. In early 2019, Fidelity began creating ‘1 Gig’ cities with their higher bandwidth network to facilitate completely connected homes. Some of the cities that are part of this ‘1 Gig’ revolution are Missouri, Rolla, Lebanon, Nevada, and Louisiana.
Fidelity Communications currently offers internet, phone, and cable services to both residential and business users.
Fidelity Communications operators its phone and internet services in 5 U.S. states, with the largest number of subscribers from Oklahoma, Missouri, and Arkansas.

Fidelity hosts an FAQ section, a Support Center, and a Corporate Blog on their website, where you can identify most commonly faced problems with the service and find help in resolving them.

A common problem you may see while using your FiDO box from Fidelity is a 5102-error code. If you receive this error, check all the cable connections to ensure they are fixed properly. If they are, try unplugging the Media Gateway along with all connected players. Reconnect them after 60 seconds and the error should be fixed.
If your internet connection is down or you face slow speeds on your network, check the Fidelity website to identify if there is a local outage. If not, try disconnecting power to all devices connected to the network. For slow speeds, run a speed test using the Fidelity website to check if the speed is less than 75% of what you should be receiving. If the speeds are on par, you may require a higher speed plan to handle the number of devices you’re using. If the speeds are lower than 75%, contact Fidelity to identify the cause.
Some standard practices to avoid several common issues are to shut down your computer every day after use and restart your router or modem at least once in a day.

And all internet companies do this. They hold city monopolies and give out sub par service. Either take it or go get slow internet.
Crap
You know what would, upgrading the lines. Can’t be bothered with that because that would cost too much. Only new houses get fiber. Older homes or ghetto or run down areas get constant fluctuations, interruptions and outages. Still pay the same as fiber fks. They keep upgrading the software and running it on 20-30-40yr old coax.
Good
Luck. They won’t do sht.

I get so sick of this. I was right in the middle of working when this went down. At the rate this keeps happening I think a lawsuit for lost wages might be necessary

Up and down up and down up and down. Not stable enough for gaming. It’s fast when it wants to be, otherwise it’s always lagging behind, like a skipping record.

Not saying my city nor zip code. Trying to be as NICE AS POSSIBLE HERE, but what the fuck. I just got off a long day of working. Half of my entire screen isn't loading, internet wont work, and I have had it go off many times. Maybe make it STABLE for once?

Instead of making upgrades to the speed you do upgrades to stability. Because it may be fast but it’s a crap connection.

They just did an upgrade of the Lawton OK market internet service.

In a capitalist market, internet is monopolized, Fkn amazing. So if you want fast speeds you have to go with who has the contract. You have options with other companies but they are slow as sht. Fix the Fkn lines. Keep uping the speed on the same old Fkn lines. And since we live in an older neighborhood that diverse the fiber lines won’t be coming to my neighborhood anytime. So their trying to squeeze as much juice on the old system as possible and it’s so shtty, fluctuates constantly, if you wanna game, good luck.

My internet goes out almost every night the last several nights. It went out at 10:30 PM and it is now midnight. I reset the router (your equipment). Nothing.

They also put their phones on hold until after closing with no indication they’re closed. I called at 4:30 and finally just hung up. I went to the website only to find they are now closed for the day. That’s an awful long time to be on hold with no response and no indication in the voice system that they’re closed for the day.

I am tired of this! You have to call for them to even look into any outages, they never just post when they're happening like they should, and when you do call they act like they have no idea that it is even going on! Bill goes up yearly and quality goes down. Get your sh** together!
