Frequently asked questions

  • Tell me more about how fiber works.

    Fiber works by firing pulses of light through optical glass strands that carry data, typically via an underground cable network. Light is an extremely efficient method of getting data from point A to point B.

    Compared to older internet tech that uses bulky copper wiring to send data, fiber makes for faster, clearer, more reliable transmission. Learn more about how it works.

  • How long does a fiber installation take?

    If Ting Internet is new to your neighborhood, it takes about 3 weeks from conducting an initial home assessment to having a connection built from our network to your home.

  • Is a wired connection faster than wireless?

    A wired connection will generally allow for faster maximum speeds than being connected on Wi-Fi due to things like competing wireless signals and the limitations of older devices. 

    That said, with today’s Wi-Fi technology and the right Wi-Fi system in your home, you can still get more than enough speed for seamless streaming, gaming, and web browsing—without the hassle of plugging anything in.

  • Do you offer fiber for businesses?
