Once again, Verizon has leveraged all the latest wireless and in-home technologies like, wifi 6e, and tri-band, giving our customers better coverage, better upload speeds, exceptional Wi-Fi coverage throughout the home and the best signal strength yet. Plus, the new design features LED lights that show customers real-time signal strength so that they can make adjustments to ensure that they’re getting optimal coverage throughout the home. This new design also helps in the setup process to provide customers constant feedback that they weren’t getting before.

The Gateway rental will be included at no additional charge for new customers who sign up for 5G Home Internet. Customers can choose between professional and self-setup, and they will continue to have 30-day smart setup support included. Verizon Home Internet offers unlimited internet with no data caps, as well as parental controls.

Additionally, Verizon announced that the Verizon Receiver – which launched last year – is now available across the entire Verizon Home Internet footprint. The Verizon Receiver seamlessly switches between all of Verizon’s wireless network bands for exceptional in-home coverage.
