Despite its low GDP per capita, Latvia boasted the third largest rural fibre coverage in Europe (behind only Denmark and Romania) in 2025. Over the past decade, operators prioritised new fibre rollout, resulting in fibre accounting for over 63% of all broadband. Tet has built a nationwide Fibre to the Home (FTTH) network covering more than 530,000 (72%) of Latvian households. As of 2022, 76% of fixed broadband subscriptions were over fiber, and over 38% of connections deliver speeds above 300 Mbps. Latvia's median fixed broadband speed was around 89 Mbps in early 2024. As part of the European Union-funded project “Improving the Availability of Electronic Communications Infrastructure in Rural Areas”, LVRTC has built a middle-mile optical network. The network construction was carried out in two phases. Latvia sent a warship on Sunday to investigate the damage, while Swedish prosecutors opened an “aggravated sabotage” investigation.
