WOW! provider overview

At Allconnect, we work to present quality information with editorial integrity. While this page may contain offers from our partners, our opinions are our own. Here’s how we make money.

What we like

No data caps – WOW! provides internet service that’s free of data caps, so you get a better experience that’s fast and reliable with no limitations.
Free installation – Order online and you can take advantage of free installation – a $50 value. Not only that, but next-day installation is also available to new residential customers who call before noon ET on the day prior to the installation.
High customer satisfaction – WOW! features award-winning customer service that’s available whenever you need them.

Things to consider

Only uses cables in most areas – In some areas, WOW! uses a combination of fiber-optic and cable lines to deliver faster speeds. However, in most areas WOW! uses just coaxial cables, which is a little slower and less reliable than fiber optic.
Some plans require a two-year contract – WOW! occasionally has 24-month agreements where the early termination fee is as high as $340.
Limited to the south and Midwest – Although WOW! is the sixth largest provider in the country, its availability is limited to a handful of states.

WOW! equipment

WOW! gateway router
WOW! offers a modem/router combo to rent for $14/mo. However, all equipment is free if you select the WOW! 1 gig internet package. You also have the option to use your own equipment. Purchasing your own equipment usually saves money, but you won’t receive the same technical support from WOW! if you have issues with it.

WOW! Whole-home Wi-Fi
If you live in a larger or multi-floor home, you may want to rent the Whole-home Wi-Fi equipment in addition to the standard WOW! Gateway router. The purpose of this mesh Wi-Fi router is to provide a stronger connection with further range than the standard router. WOW! rents this device for $9.99/mo.

WOW! Wi-Fi extenders
If you are opting to rent the Whole-home Wi-Fi mesh hardware, then you will likely need to rent the WOW! Wi-Fi extenders as well. WOW! rents these for $5.99/mo. Consider adding Wi-Fi extenders, or “Beacons,” on any floor the router is not on, or anywhere you want to ensure a strong connection.
