FAQ

Common questions about internet in Boulder

How much does home internet cost in Boulder?

U-wifi Home Unlimited is $55 a month anywhere we're live in Boulder, whether you're in University Hill, Colorado Chautauqua or out by Downtown Boulder Historic District. The next-gen gateway, two-day shipping and your first 30 days are free, and there's no contract. Or pay nothing at all with FreeU: watch ads you choose in the U-wifi app and earn credit toward your bill.

How does free internet in Boulder work?

Every U-wifi customer in Boulder can switch on FreeU inside the U-wifi app. Our Choice Advertising model lets you pick the ads you see, and watching them earns credit against your monthly service. Watch enough and the $55 is covered. Keep watching past that and you earn U-Bonus points toward merchandise in the U-store. Same gateway, same unlimited data, same speeds.

How fast is U-wifi internet in Boulder?

Wired speeds in Boulder vary by street and neighborhood, depending on which provider built out your block. U-wifi pulls from the strongest 5G tower at your address, so your experience depends on carrier coverage where you live. U-wifi doesn't tie you to one network. Our gateway picks the strongest 5G signal at your address across the major national carriers and switches if a better one appears, so you get the best speed available in your part of Boulder at any given hour. For the best signal, put the gateway near a window on the highest floor, facing the nearest tower.

Do winter storms and wildfires affect internet service in Boulder?

Boulder faces blizzards, hail, and wildfire risk, especially during dry seasons. Because U-wifi runs on multiple carrier networks instead of a single cable line, if one tower goes down your gateway shifts to the next available one. During a major weather event, service depends on carrier tower power and backup systems, but you're not waiting on a single provider to send a truck. Multi-carrier failover gives you more paths to stay connected.

Can I get U-wifi in an apartment in Boulder?

Yes. Boulder has a lot of rental units near University Hill and around Twenty Ninth Street, where a plug-and-play gateway beats waiting for a cable appointment. The gateway plugs into any outlet and works best near a window. No drilling, no antennas on the roof and nothing to remove when you move out. The gateway's wifi covers a typical 2,500 square foot home and supports up to 256 devices, so a one-bedroom or a shared house is fine.

How do I set up U-wifi in Boulder?

Enter your Boulder address to confirm coverage, order, and the gateway arrives within two days. Plug it in, find the U-wifi network on your phone or laptop, and enter the password printed on the bottom of the gateway. That's the whole install. No technician, no appointment window, and your first 30 days are a free trial.

What happens if I move within Boulder?

Pack the gateway, plug it in at the new address and connect as usual. Then sign in to your U-wifi account and update your address. Nothing to return, nothing to reschedule, and the price stays the same.

What areas near Boulder does U-wifi serve?

U-wifi is live across Boulder and in Arvada, Broomfield and Westminster. Enter your address to confirm availability at your home. If you're on the edge of coverage, the gateway also supports an external antenna for weaker 5G areas.
