FAQ

Common questions about internet in Columbus

How much does home internet cost in Columbus?

U-wifi Home Unlimited is $55 a month anywhere we're live in Columbus, whether you're in Columbus Historic District, Mill Race Park or out by Taylorsville. 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 Columbus work?

Every U-wifi customer in Columbus 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 Columbus?

Wired speeds in Columbus vary widely by street and neighborhood. U-wifi delivers true broadband over 5G, and the actual speed you see depends on which carrier has the strongest signal at your address and how many people are on that tower. 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 Columbus at any given hour. For the best signal, put the gateway near a window on the highest floor, facing the nearest tower.

Do tornadoes and winter storms affect internet service in Columbus?

Spring brings severe weather and tornadoes to southern Indiana, and winter ice storms can knock out power and communications. Because U-wifi connects to multiple carrier networks instead of a single cable line, if one tower goes offline your gateway shifts to another. During a major storm, service depends on whether the carrier towers in your area have backup power, but you're not tied to a single provider's repair schedule.

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

Yes. Renters near Columbus North High School and around the Cummins Corporate Office Building can take the gateway when they move, no lease addendum or landlord approval required. 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 Columbus?

Enter your Columbus 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 Columbus?

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 Columbus does U-wifi serve?

U-wifi is live across Columbus and in Greenwood, Bloomington and Indianapolis. 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.
