Internet Providers in Ottawa, ON

Bell is the best internet provider in Ottawa and the largest telecommunication company in Canada.

This is because they use a 100% pure fibre internet network to deliver great reliability, symmetrical download and upload speeds, and availability in most households.

Their Gigabit Fibe 1.5 is our recommended home internet plan and it costs $130 per month.

Their cheapest plan is the Fibe 50 which costs $85 per month while their fastest plan is the Gigabit Fibe 3.0 which costs $140 per month.

Bell offers professional installation for a fee of $100, subject to availability. If you prefer to do it yourself and save the installation fee, a self-install program is available. You can also add WiFi pods for $5 per month to increase the WiFi coverage.

For customer support, you can call or have a live chat.

A disadvantage of Bell is that the Gigabit Fibe 3.0 is not available in all households, and several other ISPs offer lower prices, albeit for slower internet plans.
