Understanding 1 Gig Fiber Internet

Mercury helps you tailor your internet speed to fit the unique needs of your household. 

1 Gig fiber internet delivers download and upload speeds of up to one gigabit per second, making it significantly faster than average broadband speeds. With ultra-fast speeds and low latency, 1 Gig fiber provides superior performance. 

From security systems and video doorbells to smart refrigerators, TVs, and tablets, the average household now has more than 20 connected devices.* Mercury’s 1 Gig fiber is built for homes with 11 or more devices, delivering smooth 4K streaming, lag-free gaming, and crystal-clear video conferencing.


Fiber internet relies on fiber optic cables that transmit data as light signals. This technology improves internet speeds, reliability and security. Fiber optic cables are also less susceptible to environmental damage from the elements.

Zack was on time and worked on a cold day. He was very respectful of the property and to us. He was as fast and efficient as a person could possibly be. Also, Zack made sure everything was picked up and the jobsite clean. You have a great employee and need more like him.

Our installation tech, Brandon, had a detailed answer to each and every one of my questions. He was extremely efficient and we could not be any happier with the professional installation job he performed for us! Brandon explained everything we needed to know and made sure we had our networks set up and ready to go. Everything worked perfectly from the get go and we felt confident we had the knowledge we needed going forward. Brandon is an exemplary employee and we were lucky to have him on our team!

Our Internet is now light years ahead of what it used to be. We haven't had a single problem since installation!

It's not easy to find fast Internet speeds in rural areas. Mercury has gotten us speeds that were simply unattainable with the other companies. I have full confidence we will be with Mercury for many years to come. Thank you so much Mercury!!

Iam not a tecky person by any means, But I am learning iam saving a lot more money streaming still getting used to it. So far Mercury has not let me down. Mercury installed the equipment very fast in the rain. When they entered my house they wore clean booties and there was no mess. I didnot blame them for not burying the cable that will be done when the ground thaws out. All in all I am very satisfied.

Thanks for being thorough in your explanations! You also had a lot of patience when guiding me through the app during set up. Great job!
John P.
All of it. Great service.
Laura C.
I would like to say first and foremost that Daniel and Preston did a great job getting things set up and working. Their communication was top notch and they were both very knowledgeable. The only complaint I have is that they damaged my HVAC unit outside the house. They came to me immediately and let me know. They took all the steps to make sure I was aware that they were incredibly sorry and the steps I could take if there was something wrong with the unit. Overall I understand accidents happen, but it’s how you handle the accident and the steps you take from then on to correct it that make the difference. We are very pleased with their performance!
Harry W.
Excellent service, met two installers both were honest, knowledgeable and professional. Trouble free installation.
Lord K.
Coustomer service is easy to get ahold of and is very helpful. The Mercury app is very easy to operate and is very user-friendly. Only one little con and that is that the modem and router are two diffrent devices and not just one in the same like all others. Though they do look nice with the rest of your electronics. I velcroed the modem and router together.
Douglas B.
The installation technician did an excellent job!
A H.
I love Mercury wifi! I've had it twice now. I had left once to get Spectrum fiber (DO NOT GET SPECTRUM!!!!! They LITERALLY will NOT let you disconnect service with them unless you tell them you're moving out of the country, NO JOKE!!! read Spectrum reviews & store reviews here.) I left Spectrum to go back to Mercury because their service is better & there's no pressure over ANYTHING! I've had them for 8 years now. They're the best!
