Questions About My Upcoming Ignite Install

dmbcanada
I plan to stick around

I am having Ignite Internet and TV installed tomorrow.   I had a few questions:

 

1.  Can I choose install location of modem, preferred to me is on main level next to TV.

2.  Is one Wifi pod now included for free?

3.  I am getting 500u installed, what modem am I likely to get?

Yes, you can connect the gateway to any coax connection in your house.  Most people put it in a central location in their home, for optimal Wi-Fi coverage.  Others choose a location where they have devices that require Ethernet connectivity.

 

2.  Is one Wifi pod now included for free?


No, not anymore.  I think that the rental fee is now $5/month.

 

3.  I am getting 500u installed, what modem am I likely to get?

You should be getting the Ignite XB7 Gateway.
