Best Internet Providers in Vancouver, BC (2026)

Novus is the largest independent internet service provider in Metro Vancouver. Novus uses fibre-optic internet technology to deliver reliable and lightning-fast speeds.

All internet plans offered by Novus come with symmetrical speeds and unlimited data, making them perfect for productive individuals working from home, as well as streamers and gamers.

The best internet plan is the Internet 1000, which offers 1,000 Mbps download and upload speeds for just $50 per month. In 2026, Novus dropped the price from $55 to $50, making it the cheapest 1 Gig fibre plan you’ll find in Vancouver. This is a limited-time offer.

If you want even faster speeds, Novus recently dropped the price of their 2,500 Mbps plan from $95 to $65 per month, making it a great choice for heavy users.

A unique feature Novus offers is the ability to freeze your subscription if you are travelling for an extended period. This lets you pause payments while you are away and resume service when you return, giving you full control over your plan.

Installation is free, and you also get a Wi-Fi 6 router rental included for two years.

From my personal experience, Novus customer service is top-notch. You can use their live chat to speak directly with an experienced technician if you run into any technical issues.

I’ve been using Novus for over three years now, and I’m really happy with the quality of their service. Before switching to Novus, I was with TELUS on their 1,000 Mbps plan. While the service itself was solid, the price was more than double what I pay now, and my experience with TELUS customer support was frustrating.

You can also rent a mesh Wi-Fi satellite for $5 per month if you want to extend coverage without sacrificing speed.

The only downside of Novus is availability, as service is limited to select buildings across Vancouver, Burnaby, Coquitlam, New Westminster, North Vancouver, Port Moody, Richmond, Surrey, and West Vancouver.

TekSavvy is one of the best budget-friendly internet providers in Vancouver if you want solid speeds, fair pricing, and no contracts.

In Vancouver and across Western Canada, TekSavvy primarily delivers internet over Rogers and Shaw cable networks, which gives them broad coverage across the city. They’ve also started offering fibre-based plans through TELUS wholesale access, bringing faster speeds to more addresses without locking customers into long-term commitments.

For most households, the 100 Mbps unlimited plan at $48.95 per month is the sweet spot and offers more than enough speed for streaming, video calls, and everyday work-from-home use. 

If you’re looking to spend as little as possible, TekSavvy’s 30 Mbps unlimited plan at $32.95 per month is one of the cheapest options available in Vancouver. On the higher end, TekSavvy also offers a 1 Gbps unlimited plan for around $77.50 per month, depending on availability.

What we really like about TekSavvy is the no-BS approach: transparent pricing, no contracts, and reliable Canadian-based customer support. They’re also the largest truly independent internet service provider in Canada, and one of the few left that isn’t owned by a major telecom.

TekSavvy also offers TV services, which can make bundling a bit cheaper if you’re looking to simplify your monthly bills.

Beyond plans and pricing, TekSavvy has been a long-time advocate for fair internet access and competitive wholesale pricing in Canada. As fibre availability continues to expand, we expect TekSavvy’s offerings in Vancouver to keep getting better and we’ll keep this page updated as new plans roll out.

Oxio delivers a straightforward internet service that is 100 percent focused on clients and their needs.

They use the Rogers network infrastructure under the TPIA agreement to deliver their services to most parts of Vancouver. Oxio offers several budget friendly plans starting at $50 per month for 50 Mbps download speeds.

If Novus is not available in your building, their 100 Mbps plan for $57 per month is an excellent alternative. Selected locations can access speeds as high as 1000 Mbps for $90 per month. Oxio is also very transparent with its pricing, clearly showing where your money goes.

They break it down into network cost, logistics, hardware, marketing, payroll, and profit. They offer free Eero 6 routers, free installation, and no term contracts, giving you a lot of flexibility.

The biggest con of Oxio is its broadband technology. Oxio still relies on coaxial cables and Rogers infrastructure to deliver internet to your home, while most competitors offer fibre internet with symmetrical speeds.

Telus has the best broadband coverage in Vancouver, and it offers the fastest internet technology with its 100% fiber network.

Telus offers the fastest home internet plan that is available to Vancouver residents in selected buildings.

The PureFibre Internet X 3G plan has symmetrical speeds of 3000 Mbps, no data caps, and is available for $130/month if you sign a 2-year contract.

The most popular internet plan is the PureFibre Internet Gigabit, which offers 1000 Mbps download and upload speeds for $110/month (2-Year plan) or $125/month (month-to-month).

The WiFi router is included in your monthly fee. You can self-install the Telus internet as the equipment can be shipped to your door or pay a fee for professional installation by an expert technician.

Some newer apartment buildings have the Telus router pre-installed, so all you need to do is give them a call to activate the internet for you.

The biggest downside of Telus, in our opinion, is the pricing, which is a bit expensive.

Additionally, their customer service is not always as good as its competitors’ support.

Rogers delivers high-speed, reliable, and unlimited internet using a fiber network.

After acquiring Shaw in April 2023, Rogers has expanded its footprint in Western Canada, bringing more competition and lowering home internet prices in the region.

The fastest plan currently available to Vancouver households is the Internet 1.5 Gigabit, which is capable of 1500 Mbps download speed and 150 Mbps upload speed. Priced at $110/month if you sign up for a 2-year contract.

Rogers also offers lower priced plans such as Ignite Internet 75 for $60/month (2-Year plan) that delivers 75 Mbps download and upload speed.

You can also rent their Ignite WiFi Pod (Gen 2) for $10/month if you want to extend your WiFi coverage.

What we don’t like is the fact that to get access to their competitive pricing, you need to sign a 2-year contract.
