Rise Broadband: a buyer's guide

Everything you need to know about Rise Broadband — coverage footprint, equipment, installation, and how pricing actually works after the promo.

About Rise Broadband

Rise Broadband’s claim to fame is providing fixed wireless internet to more than 16 million people across 16 states, including Texas and most of the Midwest. This feat makes Rise Broadband the fourth-largest fixed wireless internet provider in the U.S. Now, that’s what we call rising to the top!

Why pick Rise Broadband?

Why pick Rise Broadband over the alternatives? It depends on what's serviceable at your address and what you're optimizing for. Rise Broadband runs a fixed_wireless network, which means strong speeds and reliability where the infrastructure exists. The pros and cons section on this page summarizes real customer feedback. Before you sign up, always run an availability check at your ZIP — even nationwide carriers don't reach every address.

Rise Broadband equipment & modems

Rise Broadband provides the modem and Wi-Fi equipment needed for service in most plans. Some plans include the equipment fee in the monthly price; others charge a $10-15/mo rental. You can typically buy your own compatible modem to avoid rental fees — check Rise Broadband's approved-device list. Self-installation kits are standard for non-fiber plans and ship in 3-5 business days.

Installing Rise Broadband

Rise Broadband installation depends on the plan. Cable, DSL, and fixed-wireless plans usually offer self-install kits — connect the modem yourself in 15 minutes. Fiber plans typically require a professional technician visit (2-4 hour window) for the optical network terminal install. 5G home internet is fully self-install. Same-week appointments are usually available; same-day in major metros.

Rise Broadband pricing & fees

Rise Broadband pricing follows the industry pattern: a 12-month promotional rate, then a higher regular rate. Add equipment rental ($10-15/mo) if not included, and any local franchise fees. Bundles with TV or mobile can save $20-40/mo. Watch for: hidden installation fees on professional installs, early termination penalties on contracts, and price hikes after promo period. Always confirm the final post-promo price before signing.
