FAQ
Common questions about internet in Lincoln
How much does home internet cost in Lincoln?
U-wifi Home Unlimited is $55 a month anywhere we're live in Lincoln, whether you're in Nebraska State Capitol, Maxwell Arboretum or out by Park Hill. 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 Lincoln work?
Every U-wifi customer in Lincoln 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 Lincoln?
Wired speeds in Lincoln vary widely by neighborhood and street. Some blocks near the Nebraska State Capitol or Maxwell Arboretum see fast fiber, while others rely on older cable or DSL networks that haven't been upgraded in years. 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 Lincoln 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 Lincoln?
Lincoln sits in tornado alley and sees severe blizzards in winter. 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 tornado or ice storm, service depends on carrier tower power and backup systems, but you're not waiting on a single provider to send a truck.
Can I get U-wifi in an apartment in Lincoln?
Yes. Renters near the University of Nebraska and in the Palisade and Regent Apartments get the same plug-and-play setup as single-family homes across Lincoln. 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 Lincoln?
Enter your Lincoln 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 Lincoln?
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 Lincoln does U-wifi serve?
U-wifi is live across Lincoln and in Bellevue, Omaha and Grand Island. 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.
