Picture this: Fast, reliable internet service at your home that can power your devices—computers, tablets, TVs, phones, streaming devices and more—all at the same time.

Unlike the systems from traditional internet service providers, the service doesn’t require any messy wires to run to your home; in fact, setup for this new system is plug-and-play. And it’s at an unbelievable value—with no extra contracts, no extra fees and no data caps.

That’s what you get with Verizon 5G Home, an ultra-fast, ultra-simple Verizon Home Internet option. It’s part of Verizon Home Internet’s portfolio of home Internet services, which also includes LTE Home Internet and our award-winning Fios Home Internet.

How Verizon 5G Home Internet works

Verizon 5G Home Internet is powered by Verizon’s ultra-fast 5G Ultra Wideband, which uses high-band and mid-band spectrum to deliver a top-of-the-line network experience. Verizon 5G Home Internet is available in select areas, and provides performance previously only available through wired connections.

Setup is easy, too. Sign up, and you’ll get a Wi-Fi 6 router that’s easy to set up yourself and that provides a connection point for all your devices. You’ll also get a simple guide for where to place it (such as near a window) for the best experience.

The value you deserve

With Verizon 5G Home Internet, getting more doesn’t always mean paying more. In fact, if you already have a premium 5G Unlimited plan for your mobile device, you can save at least $25 a month (if you use Auto Pay) on 5G Home Internet.

Verizon 5G Home Internet is available in two plans.

  • $25/month when using Auto Pay for existing Verizon customers on 5G Play More, 5G Do More or 5G Get More mobile plans.

For even greater peace of mind, we guarantee your monthly service price for 2 or 3 years, depending on the plan you select. Plus, you may be eligible for up to a $500 credit to cover any early termination fees when you switch to Verizon (see details). And there are no annual contracts, extra fees, data caps, overages or equipment charges (if needed, Wi-Fi extenders may be purchased for an additional charge).

With both plans, you also receive a 30-day satisfaction guarantee, as well as 30 days of free setup support—which makes installation worry-free.
