Important: The cheapest plan is not always the best value. A $39/month plan with weekly outages costs more in lost productivity than a reliable $65/month connection. We help you find the right balance between price and performance for your actual usage.

"Was on a Shaw plan at $98/month. They moved me to Oxio on the exact same cable infrastructure for $43/month. Same speeds, same reliability. Cannot believe I waited so long."
