Bell is expanding the availability of its recently released Giga Hub 2.0 Wi-Fi 7 router to more areas across Ontario and Quebec.
Released back in September, a few months behind competitors Rogers and Telus, the modem was initially available to customers in Toronto and the surrounding GTA, Ottawa, London, Windsor, Kitchener, Guelph, Barrie, Collingwood, Bradford, and Quebec City and its surrounding areas.
According to a Bell spokesperson, cities west of Toronto, including Windsor, Oakville, St. Catharines, and Niagara, will now be able to receive the modem. Kingston is also set to receive coverage with the Giga Hub 2.0 and WiFi 7. In Quebec, Bell has expanded coverage to cities such as Montreal, Laval, Gatineau, Sherbrooke, and Trois-Rivières.
To add some context, the Giga Hub 2.0 offers a high-res OLED display, which, as Bell states, makes it easier to run speed tests and share Wi-Fi passwords. The hub also sports a 10Gbps port, two 2.5Gbps ports, and two 1Gbps Ethernet ports. As we previously noted, the 10Gbps port would be a pretty good passthrough if you wanted to use your own modem.
The new Giga Hub 2.0 modem, which now supports WiFi 7, is available on all Bell Pure Fibre internet plans for both eligible new and existing customers. Bell currently offers seven plans that include the Giga Hub 2.0, ranging from a 50Mbps plan for $50 per month to an 8Gbps plan for $130 per month.
