Internet plan. If you’re not currently a WOW! customer, we can help you choose the best Internet plan for your needs and schedule your installation.

WOW! will stop accepting new applications and enrollments for the Affordable Connectivity Program after close of business February 7, 2024 9:00 PM ET in response to an announcement from the FCC.
Do I qualify for broadband discounts?
Your household may qualify based solely on income level. If you receive certain federal benefits, you qualify for the Affordable Connectivity Program. Some of those programs include SNAP, Medicaid, Federal Public Housing Assistance, SSI, WIC, or Lifeline Assistance.
If your children qualify for FRPL or SBP, or if they attend a school where all students qualify under the Community Eligibility Provision, then your household qualifies for the Affordable Connectivity Program.
If a family member has been awarded a Federal Pell Grant college scholarship, then your household qualifies for the FCC's Internet discount.
