Coverage by area
Neighborhoods we cover in Yakima
- 01
Terrace Heights
Unincorporated hillside community on the bluffs above the Yakima River. Cable buildout is patchy on these winding roads; a gateway that connects to the nearest tower works the day you move in.
- 02
West Valley
Suburban sprawl west of the city limits, home to East Valley High School and a mix of orchards and subdivisions. Tower-based internet reaches new construction without waiting for a trench crew.
- 03
Fruitvale
Orchard country and rural lots where addresses can be a quarter mile apart. A plug-and-play gateway means you're online as soon as the box arrives, no appointment needed.
- 04
Union Gap
Small city just south of Yakima, home to Valley Mall and a cluster of big-box retail. High turnover in rental units near the mall; our gateway ships free and sets up in minutes.
- 05
Selah
Orchard town north of Yakima with views of the Selah Gap. Rural addresses and newer subdivisions mean cable coverage is uneven; tower signal fills the gaps.
- 06
Yakima Valley College
Community college campus with students cycling in and out every quarter. No installer, no contract, and you can take the gateway with you when the lease ends.
FAQ
Common questions about internet in Yakima
How much does home internet cost in Yakima?
U-wifi Home Unlimited is $55 a month anywhere we're live in Yakima, whether you're in Terrace Heights, West Valley or out by Union Gap. 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 Yakima work?
Every U-wifi customer in Yakima 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 Yakima?
Wired speeds in Yakima vary widely by street and neighborhood. Some blocks get fiber, others see old copper, and rural addresses may have nothing at all. 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 Yakima 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 wildfire smoke affect internet service in Yakima?
Yakima faces windstorms and ice in winter, wildfire smoke in summer, and the occasional heavy snow that takes down power lines. 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.
Can I get U-wifi in an apartment in Yakima?
Yes. Apartment and multifamily coverage is strong around Yakima Valley College, downtown near the Capitol Theatre, and in the rental clusters near Valley Mall. 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 Yakima?
Enter your Yakima 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 Yakima?
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 Yakima does U-wifi serve?
U-wifi is live across Yakima and in Richland, Kennewick and Pasco. 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.
