i3’s internet services also require customers to use Wi-Fi pods, which can be rented for $5 per month, per pod. It recommends one pod for a small one- to two-bedroom home, two pods for a three- to four-bedroom home and three pods for larger homes. You can also choose to use your own router, but the company can’t guarantee performance speeds.

Customers are also eligible for a 30-day money-back guarantee if they’re not satisfied with their service.

To start your service, you can either sign up online, call the company directly at (877) 976-0711 or send an email to sales@i3Broadband.com. You’ll then schedule your installation, which typically takes about an hour and requires connecting a buried fiber optic drop cable to your home.

Connection also requires i3 Smart Wi-Fi pods that are plugged into standard outlets throughout your home to ensure a strong Wi-Fi signal. Customers can control these pods through the HomePass app. Once you’ve signed up for a plan, you can set up an online account to manage your services.
