Wireless Internet waitlist / availability

MEAGAIN — Sat, 16 Dec 2023 19:23:08 GMT

Asking how to get on a wait list with Bell for rural wireless internet. I have Fibe available with poor speeds of 10/1, which is very slow for todays requirements. Have been told someday, Bell will increase the local tower for wireless but no one can tell when this will be, and to continuing checking with them.

Hi @MEAGAIN Bell is accelerating the deployment of Wireless Home Internet to even more Canadians living in rural areas. We added an additional 137,000 homes in 180 communities in the month of April and are continuing to expand. We are excited to grow our network of fast and reliable Internet with speeds of up to 25 Mbps. To check eligibility of your residence please visit; https://www.bell.ca/Bell_Internet/Internet_access

Does not answer if there is a wait list to get on. My location still does not show wireless as an option, only Fibe with speed of 10/1, and that is MAX speed when available.

"SOMEDAY" seems to be Bell's answer for everything Wireless Home Internet related. Beginning to wonder if it really even exists. Especially when Bells definition of RURAL is a small town that already has landline internet and which they can add fibreoptic lines. The true RURAL customer whose actual Bell landlines do not even work to properly support phone service. Lord help us if there ever is a major emergency, because for over a year even the cell service can drop calls at anytime, the internet on a Turbo Hub which paying a fortune for and we have 2 of them to get enough coverage, drops off and slows to a crawl or is TOTALLY NON EXISTENT in the evenings. Several calls to Bell to be told the Tower is fine just more usage right now........THEN HELLO BELL... I AM THINKING THOSE CUSTOMERS WOULD REALLY LIKE AN UPGRADED SERVICE IN WHICH BELL MAKES MORE MONEY LIKE I DUNNO MAYBE "WIRELESS HOME INTERNET" FOR REAL RURAL USERS, like those of us on backroad Ontario. Or who now live at their lakefront places all year round. What a RADICAL IDEA!!

If you are sensing major sarcasm you would be right. Bell has more excuses then a kid who didn't do his homework. And enough departments to keep shuffling unhappy customers for 2 or 3 hours until they finally give up. Hey Politicians....Rural people vote too and have long memories of promises not kept.

Have a nice evening....I WILL, NOT BEING ABLE TO GET ON THE TURBO HUB INTERNET THAT I AM PAYING A HUGE PRICE FOR 5 MB DOWNLOAD SPEED. PATHETIC!!

Slow internet signal

How to get Bell to switch sat. tower for service closer. Bell has tower 2 miles away, now - my signal comes from Valcourt Qc. - hundreds of miles away. Very poor service!

Hi all, so I’m curious about the pricing for a Bell wireless internet hub. Is this the right place to ask?. I tried calling Bell and was redirected to a new department 4-5 times. I even walked into an authorized Bell dealer but I guess they only offered mobility services. Should I try a legit Bell store in that case?. I just want to know the pricing of a hub and the plans that go with it. Thanks.

You should find rural pricing online, based on what is available in your service area.
