What Is Verizon 5G Home Internet?

Verizon 5G Home Internet uses the company’s 5G wireless network to deliver high‑speed internet to homes, without relying on coaxial cables or fiber lines. Instead of a technician visit, customers receive a 5G gateway device that connects to Verizon’s network and broadcasts Wi‑Fi throughout the home.

This product is designed to be:

  • Easy – “plug‑and‑play” setup of modem-router equipment provided by Verizon
  • Fast – speeds that support streaming, gaming, and remote work
  • Flexible – customizable packages tailored to every household’s needs and budgets
  • Affordable – Prices competitive with other internet service and cable providers

 

Product Snapshot (March 2026)

Here’s a quick look at the current Verizon 5G Home Internet equipment.  The included state-of-the-art router features dual band support to provide fast speeds, coverage, and low latency so you get optimal performance from your device. The gateway combines the modem and router into one unit, reducing clutter and making setup easier. LED indicators on the front help customers quickly understand signal strength, Wi‑Fi status, and power.

3. “No Surprises” Pricing

Verizon continues to earn public accolades for its uniquely simple and straightforward approach to Home Internet pricing.

  • Pricing starts at $35 per month.
  • Price Lock Guarantee for at least 3 years*
  • No Annual Contract or hidden equipment fees.
  • No Activation Fees *Unless professional installation is required.
  • Discounts: If you have a qualifying, existing Verizon mobile phone plan, you may receive discounts on your home internet.

Verizon’s uncommon lack of complexity seems to be a winner with home internet customers fed up with other carriers’ confusing price gimmicks and mysterious billing practices.

 

4. Expanding Coverage

Verizon is rapidly expanding its 5G Home Internet, aiming for 50 million new households by 2026. The service is growing via 5G Ultra Wideband, offering fast, no-contract internet in major cities like New York, Los Angeles, and Chicago, while also targeting suburban and under served areas. Check the Verizon 5G Coverage Map for services currently available at your location.
