FAQ
Rural internet questions, answered
The questions we hear most from folks at the end of the road.
What is cellular home internet?
Internet service that uses the same cell towers your phone uses, delivered through a plug-in router that makes WiFi for your whole house.
Is it satellite?
No. There is no dish and no satellite. It uses cell towers.
Do I need a technician?
No. You plug the router in yourself. Nothing is mounted on the outside of your house.
Will it work at my house?
If your phone gets a steady signal where the router would sit, the odds are good. Send us your address and we will check.
Is there a contract or credit check?
Backroads WiFi service has no contract and no credit check. It is prepaid month to month.
Can I take it with me?
Portable options can travel with you to the camp, the camper or the deer stand.
How many devices can connect?
Plenty for a typical household: TVs, phones, laptops, tablets, game consoles and cameras together.
Can I stream on it?
Yes. Streaming movies and the game is one of the most common reasons people call us.
What if it does not work well at my place?
Call or text us. Most problems are fixed by moving the router closer to a window. If your location truly will not work, we will tell you.
