Verizon Fixed Wireless
October 30, 2025 Overall, I'm ok with my internet provider (Verizon). The speed is solid so that I'm able to stream, do my work, or play on my phone without a lag. This is true even when my partner is online. I’ve barely had any outages, and when something does go wrong, their support team usually sorts it out fast. Honestly though, the price would be way too much if I didn’t have the home bundle discount. Even now if I didn't split it with someone I wouldn't want to pay for the speed. Their app they have is also convenient for checking my bill and restarting the router when needed. I just wish the regular price wasn’t so steep without a bundle.
