5G stands for the fifth generation of mobile communications, or the next generation of wireless connectivity. And there’s a lot of excitement in the market today about the potential that 5G offers to fuel innovation and transform the way we live, work and play. 5G networks promise much faster data rates and reduced lag than 4G, using new infrastructure, radio frequencies and technology to create never-before-seen possibilities for a wide variety of applications, including faster cell phones and home internet.

While both 4G and 5G rely on radio signals to carry data, 5G represents a new kind of network that could potentially connect almost everyone and everything in the future, including machines, objects and devices. 5G is being designed with flexibility in mind, to support future services and applications that may not even exist today.

With a home internet service like Verizon 5G Home Internet powered by 5G Ultra Wideband, you can expect ultra-fast wireless internet with typical download speeds of 300 Mbps and max speeds of up to 1 Gbps. Typical upload speeds are around 50 Mbps, with no data caps.

Verizon’s 5G Home Internet relies on the power of Verizon 5G Ultra Wideband, which is available to mobile customers in parts of select cities. With both services, you can get fast internet speeds with ultra-low lag to power many devices at once. But there are some important differences between the two. With Verizon mobile 5G service, customers use a 5G-enabled phone capable of receiving 5G radio waves to connect to the network wherever there’s 5G tower coverage.

Verizon 5G Home Internet, meanwhile, is a fixed wireless access service (FWA) powered by 5G Ultra Wideband that provides ultra-fast Wi-Fi connections to the home. And switching to 5G Home is easy. Customers can choose either self-setup or professional installation. For more information about professional installation, see our 5G Home Internet Professional Setup FAQs.

Verizon has already launched a 5G wireless network built to connect your home with cutting-edge internet that’s ready for what comes next.
