Check Internet Before Moving

Before moving, confirm exact-address internet options, not only provider advertising for the town or postal code.

Key idea

Checklist for checking internet before moving to a house, apartment, condo, rural property or cottage in Canada, including address availability and upload speed.

What to check

  • Confirm service using the exact civic address, not only a city name.
  • For apartments and condos, include the unit number when checking availability.
  • Compare upload speed as well as download speed.
  • Check regular pricing after promotional periods.
  • Ask about installation, equipment rental, shipping, cancellation and equipment return rules.
  • For rural, cottage or remote service, consider line of sight, power, weather, obstructions and backup options.
