Getting Connected
How do I get Wi-Fiber residential service installed?
After you have selected the Wi-Fiber residential plan that works for you, please click the "Inquire Now" button on our website and complete the request form. We will contact you to schedule a site survey and potential installation.
What is a site survey?
Wi-Fiber residential service is delivered via a microwave wireless connection that requires line-of-sight. A site survey is a visual inspection from your rooftop to verify a line-of-sight path to one of our network locations. If we can verify line-of-sight, we will schedule an installation.
What is the installation process?
Wi-Fiber Resident service is delivered via a microwave wireless connection. An antenna is mounted on the roof with a CAT-6 ethernet cable that runs into the home and connects to an adapter that provides power and an ethernet connection to your Wi-Fi router. Our technicians will discuss the mounting and cable path options with you before the installation. The installation typically takes about two hours.
How do I connect my internet?
Our technicians will connect the data port on the power adapter to the Internet port of the Wi-Fi router that Wi-Fiber provides. Our technicians will also ensure that your Wi-Fi router is set up professionally.
How long does installation take?
In most cases, a typical install will take about 2 hours.
Is it possible to do a self-install?
It is not because of the expertise required to set up the equipment necessary to provide our high-quality service.
Quality of Service
Is wireless internet as reliable as DSL or Cable?
Yes. Our service has the same uptime as any other cable provider. You will enjoy an internet connection that’s always on. Severe weather that affects power, fiber, and other services can affect our service.
Is your service better than satellite, Wild Blue, HughesNet, etc?
Yes. You will enjoy an internet service that is always on. Additionally, satellite internet service has an astrophysical problem compared to our service, where the connection must travel over 100,000 miles round trip to reach your home. This causes latency issues to the Internet, otherwise known as lag. This means it takes up to 200 times more time for your internet connection to receive the data than with our service. Satellite also has daily download limits. Sometimes, a Windows update can cause you to reach your daily download limit, and you will no longer be able to enjoy a high-speed connection.
Do you require a contract?
Contracts are not required in our Residential plans.
What is the monthly allotted bandwidth (data usage)?
All residential, business, and enterprise plans have an unlimited data allotment every month that is subject only to fair usage. Super Saver plans have a small amount of data(around 50GB) useful for homework/email, not streaming.
Can other info be added to an invoice?
At the moment, the only way to add additional information to invoices is to add the information to the workspace's name.
Applications
What if my current internet service is linked to my phone and TV service?
Wi-Fiber not only provides top-notch internet service, but it also provides VOIP phone service and supports Internet-based High Definition TV services like Youtube TV, SlingTV, or similar.
What are my options for email?
Email accounts are not included with Wi-Fiber Internet. There are many excellent email services available that will allow you to keep your email independent.
Can I make video or conference calls over Wi-Fiber Internet?
Yes! Wi-Fiber residential service is perfect for both of these uses because of the low latency (snappy communication speeds) and the provided upload and download speeds.
Can I use my smartphone over Wi-Fiber internet?
Yes! Enable your smartphone to use your Wi-Fi router connection for data instead of the cellular connection. In addition to web, text, and email, you can use applications such as WhatsApp and Skype that bypass carrier networks to send messages and make voice or video calls. Wi-Fi calling is an exciting new capability that enables phone calls to switch automatically between cellular and Wi-Fi networks.
Can I use streaming video over Wi-Fiber Residential?
Yes! Wi-Fiber’s residential Saver plan works great for multiple HD Video streams at a time, and the Wi-Fiber Lite and Wi-Fiber Ultimate are perfect for Ultra HD 4K video streaming.
Can I make a VPN connection over Wi-Fiber internet?
Yes! Virtual Private Network (VPN) is a technique to provide a secure connection over the Internet. Wi-Fiber Residential Internet supports all VPN protocols.
Technical
Do I need my own router?
No, we include one router lease for free as a part of all of our internet service packages. However, we do charge for any additional router after that.
Can I use my own router?
Yes, however, we cannot guarantee the Wi-Fiber internet quality. Thus, Wi-Fi or other localized issues that cause a technician visit will incur the standard Service call Charge of $75. We do not allow Netgear routers on our network.
Why are Netgear routers not allowed?
To provide the best Wi-Fiber internet experience possible, we have determined through our years and thousands of customers' experiences that Netgear Nighthawks have the most significant volume of support issues. An internet industry-wide poll has revealed the same as our experience. Buying the right router saves you and us time, money, and frustration.
Do I need a modem?
No, the modem is integrated into the microwave radio system. We connect a quality router to this radio system, and you have fantastic internet service at your fingertips.
