Ask your current provider whether it serves your new address, including the apartment or unit. Even if it operates nearby, the connection type, speed, equipment or price may be different at the new home.
Compare its transfer offer with other plans available there. Look at the regular price, introductory period, equipment and setup fees, and cancellation terms. Check which discounts apply to you.
Keeping your current provider may be easiest if its service and price still fit your needs. Compare the offers before you switch.
Confirm whether you can set up the service yourself or need a technician. Ask when it will be active, when you will get the equipment, and whether you or the property manager need to do anything first.
If you need internet for work, plan for a delay. Check the cost and data limits of any temporary connection before relying on it.
Once you know the setup plan, arrange when to end your old service and return rented equipment. Check available installation dates with the provider. We cannot guarantee service by your move-in date.
Write down each introductory price, how long it lasts, and the price afterward. Add required equipment, installation or activation, delivery fees and taxes. Keep optional extras separate.
Check the conditions for AutoPay or bundle discounts, along with cancellation and equipment-return charges. If an offer includes a reward card, find out how to claim it and how long you must keep the service.
Ask each provider for its Broadband Facts label; the FCC’s sample label shows the information to look for. Compare typical upload and download speeds, latency (delay), data limits and total cost. If a fee is not listed, ask before you order.
Add up the first 12 months, including required fees, and divide by 12 to compare average monthly costs. Check the regular price after the offer ends too.
Look beyond the national brands. Check the FCC map for local phone companies, co-ops, city-run networks and wireless providers listed for your address. Try its filters for different connection types.
Ask wireless providers what equipment you need, where it will go, and whether the plan can only be used at the registered home address. For satellite, check where the dish can be mounted with a clear view of the sky.
Compare typical upload speeds, latency and data limits as well as price. Confirm installation costs for the property. The FCC’s map guide explains how to use the map and what its data means.
