Starry provides (more than 5G) Home internet by using the next generation of new wireless technologies that support high-speed, low-latency internet connectivity using millimeter-wave bands capable of sending large amounts of data over short distances by using higher frequency bands in the 24 to 37GHz range that can permit faster speeds and a higher rate of data transfer (5G connection operates in sub-6GHz range). Starry’s Home Internet service is available in select areas in the United States of America only in Boston, Log Angeles, Columbus, Ohio, New York City, Denver, Washington DC, etc, and planning to launch in Las Vegas now.
Starry’s basic Home Internet service costs $30/month with download speed up to 50Mbps but for the higher download speed of up to 200Mbps and upload speeds of 100Mbps, you have to pay a little more i.e. $50 per month. In some areas, a few more selective plans are also available up to download speed up to 1000Mbps for more price. Starry’s affordable home internet plan costs just $15 per month and it offers symmetrical upload and download speeds of 30Mbps. Starry’s all Internet plans offer unlimited data, no additional fees for equipment, and no contract requirements. Details of all plans are given below.

Compared Starry’s Home Internet service with other fixed-wireless connections, like AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile Home Internet, Starry Internet plans offer much faster speeds, often for a lower price, and unlimited data. Google Fiber Webpass is another high-speed fixed wireless Home Internet service provider, which offers up to one-gigabit service plan for $70 per month, or $63 per month if you pay a year in advance. It’s slightly cheaper than Starry’s gigabit plan, but there are no additional or cheaper plan options with Google Webpass like you’ll get with Starry.
