You can pair Frontier’s internet with DISH Network’s satellite TV service. There are seven combinations in all, but none include Frontier’s 2 Gbps fiber plan. Installation is free for up to six rooms for new DISH customers, and each plan comes with the Hopper Duo smart HD DVR receiver. STARZ, SHOWTIME, and the DISH Movie Pack are free for the first three months.

 
How does Frontier compare against competitors?

Frontier primarily competes with AT&T and CenturyLink in the DSL internet space and AT&T and Verizon in the fiber internet space.

With DSL, both competitors have the upper hand. CenturyLink charges $50 per month for up to 100 Mbps and AT&T charges $55 per month for the same speed.

For fiber internet, Frontier has the cheapest 500 Mbps plan at $49.99 per month. Its gigabit plan is slightly cheaper than AT&T and Verizon, but its 2 Gbps plan is more expensive than AT&T’s similar Internet 2000 plan.

FAQ about Frontier

What happened to Frontier’s TV services?

Frontier discontinued its TV services for new customers in 2020, presumably due to COVID-19, and to focus on its fiber network expansion. Unfortunately, Frontier does not provide an official explanation for discontinuing TV services for new customers.

Customers with existing Frontier TV services can still use them, but the company doesn’t offer them to new customers. Instead, you can sign up for YouTube TV, select a DISH Network plan, or sign up for DIRECTV Stream.

Where can I get Frontier’s fiber internet?

According to Frontier, you can get fiber in select areas of California, Florida, Indiana, and Texas.3 However, we’ve found Frontier’s fiber in the following locations:

  • Tampa, Florida
  • Myrtle Beach, South Carolina
  • Fort Wayne, Indiana
  • Fort Worth/Dallas area, Texas
  • League City, Texas
  • Seattle, Washington
  • Portland, Oregon
  • Long Beach, California

How much does Frontier’s equipment cost each month?

Frontier does not charge a monthly fee for equipment. Installation is free, too, so there are no worries about up-front costs when you choose a plan. If you choose the Fiber Internet 500 or Fiber Gig plan, you get the Amazon Eero 5 mesh networking kit. Fiber 2 Gig customers receive the Sagemcom 5950 Wi-Fi 6E system, and DSL customers use Arris wireless gateways.

Why is there an internet infrastructure surcharge?

The monthly infrastructure surcharge supports network maintenance and other costs. According to Frontier, this charge is necessary due to increased internet traffic and usage that impacts its internet network infrastructure. Frontier will continue to charge this fee indefinitely.4
