Residential Internet
Fixed wireless and 5G home internet available in areas cable and fiber don't reach. Check availability at your address.
Wireless home internet comes in two main forms: fixed wireless and 5G home internet. Both deliver broadband via radio signals rather than physical cables.
Fixed wireless uses a small antenna installed on your roof or exterior wall that receives a signal from a nearby tower. 5G home internet is newer — it uses the same 5G cellular network your phone uses to beam broadband directly to a plug-in home router. T-Mobile and Verizon are the largest providers and have rapidly expanded coverage.
Fixed wireless internet uses radio signals transmitted from a tower to a receiver antenna installed at your home. It doesn't require cables or phone lines — just a clear signal path to the tower.
5G home internet uses the same 5G cellular networks as your phone to deliver broadband to a home router. Providers like T-Mobile and Verizon offer 5G home internet plans that plug in like any other router — no technician required.
Speed varies widely. Traditional fixed wireless typically offers 25–100 Mbps. 5G home internet can deliver 100–300 Mbps with peaks above 1 Gbps in some areas.
Yes, in most cases. Modern fixed wireless and 5G home internet plans are fast enough for 4K streaming and video calls. Latency is slightly higher than fiber or cable but acceptable for most uses.
Major providers include T-Mobile Home Internet, Verizon Home Internet (5G), Rise Broadband, and many regional fixed wireless ISPs. Availability depends on your location and proximity to towers.
