Have questions? Read below for answers to common questions about Strada Communications Fiber Internet.

Can I still watch TV?

Absolutely! Strada Fiber Internet service gives you the speed and reliability to watch any TV channel you like through subscription applications like Netflix (movies and TV shows), Fubo (traditional cable package), YouTube TV, etc. The options are almost endless. Our team can help you save money and find the services that work best for you. We will help you set up your TV to make sure you don’t miss any of your favorite movies, shows or channels.

What if I want to keep my landline phone service?

Great! Strada has Voice Over IP (VOIP) phone packages available for residential and business customers. These phones connect directly with your internet service. Ask us about our options and packages.

How does installation work?

Our team installs our Fiber underground throughout the area. When you decide to sign up, our team will come to your property to locate anything you may already have in the ground. We will connect our existing Fiber to your home by drilling a line underground and placing a NID (about the size of an iPad) to the outside of your house to connect the Fiber to your modem inside. The last step is for our technicians to set up your modem, make sure you are getting signal in all the areas you need, and presto! You now have 100% Fiber Internet service. If you sell your home, are moving or decide to cancel our pause services, your home is connected for good.

What modem do I use?

All Strada customers are provided with a fiber optic modem for network connectivity free of charge. Customers may choose to use their own Wi-Fi router or purchase a fiber optic GigaCenter router from Strada for $249.99 plus tax. A router purchased from Strada comes with a 1-year service and replacement warranty. 804 Wi-Fi mesh satellite extenders are used when customers would like to expand their home Wi-Fi network or have reduced Wi-Fi signal strength due to multiple walls, microwaves, baby monitors, or your neighbor’s Wi-Fi. Strada offers 804 mesh satellites for purchase at $99.99 plus tax and includes a 1-year service and replacement warranty. Strada customers may also rent an 804 mesh satellite with a protection plan for $9.99 per month.

We support the equipment we provide you. If you choose to use another Wi-Fi solution, Strada cannot support it without a service charge.

How does Strada Bill for Service?

Upon completion of installation and service activation, customers will be asked to provide automatic billing information either through an ACH or debit/credit card. The first month’s services are prorated depending on the date of install. Charges for service are processed on the 1st of the month unless otherwise designated, and receipts are provided via email.

Acceptable use policy

The Acceptable Use Policy (AUP) below has been designed to ensure responsible use of the Internet and its resources and to avoid practices that degrade the usability of the network.

What's Strada's Service Call Policy?

It is our mission to make sure your internet is working for you! Our team is committed to assisting you with any troubleshooting needs.

We have a 30-Day service guarantee where there is no charge for any issue you may have from the date of your installation. After 30 days, any service issues due to Strada equipment or service remains free of charge. If the issue is due to non-Strada equipment or service, you may incur a service charge:

  • During Business Hours (8:00am to 4:00pm): $75
  • Outside of Business Hours (Mon-Fri 4:00pm-6:00pm; Saturday 1200pm-6:00pm): $150
    Service calls received outside of business hours or on holidays will be addressed the following business day.

     

    We’ll do our best to troubleshoot prior to sending a technician, but we may not know what the issue is until we arrive on-site. We will always do our best to communicate any potential costs to you.

Suspension or Cancellation Policy

You may cancel or temporarily suspend your internet service with Strada Communications at any time. You are responsible for all fees up until your requested date and must return any leased equipment within 10 days of your last date of service. Suspension of service does not require the return of equipment. Suspension or cancellation of services cannot be applied retroactively.

  8. Our service is 100% Fiber Optic Internet where other local internet providers have “Fiber-like” technology, and use the term to draw folks in
