We're providing our coax customers with an improved wireless experience with Wi-Fi 6. Customers in Prince Rupert, Terrace, and Kitimat with Quantum 50, 125, and 250 Internet services can now rent a Gigaspire Router with Wi-Fi 6 directly from us for $2.50/month. The Gigaspire will replace your current wireless router, and will improve your wireless experience throughout your home with better coverage!
If you're wondering how adding a Gigaspire Router will improve your wireless experience, we'll break down the difference between a modem and Gigaspire below.
Modem
The modem bridges the gap between your home network and your Internet service provider. It sends, receives, and converts data so you can use the Internet.
Gigaspire Router
The Gigaspire Router routes your Internet connection from one physical connection to multiple devices, letting your devices have access to both the Internet and each other. The Gigaspire router also adds protection to your devices because they aren't directly exposed to the Internet. Having a Gigaspire Router provides a Wi-Fi 6 connection which will give you better coverage throughout your home, and allows you to upgrade to our advanced HomeNet features.
