Verizon expands LTE Home Internet to more rural areas
October 01 2020 - 9:00AM
Following a successful initial launch this summer, today, Verizon
LTE Home Internet is expanding to cover rural parts of 189 markets
in 48 states.1 This innovative home broadband internet service
leverages Verizon’s award-winning 4G LTE network.
Why LTE Home Internet?
With LTE Home Internet, customers can work, study
or home-school their kids using the nation’s most awarded 4G LTE
network. They’ll get unlimited data, and experience download speeds
of 25 Mbps with peak download speeds of 50 Mbps.4 With easy
self-setup, customers can install the router on their own - no tech
or tools are needed.
“This summer, we introduced LTE Home Internet in
select pilot markets, and the response from customers was
incredible,” said Frank Boulben, Senior Vice President of Consumer
Marketing and Products at Verizon. “It’s clear the need for
connectivity has never been greater during these challenging times,
that’s why today, we’re expanding LTE Home Internet to even more
customers in rural areas of America who may not have access to
broadband Internet.”
The Details.
LTE Home Internet is $40 a month for Verizon
wireless customers and $60 a month for non-Verizon wireless
customers. The easy-to install LTE Home router is on us after a $10
a month device payment plan promotional credit that lasts for 24
months.5 To find out if LTE Home Internet is available in your
