Technically, there is no monthly Wi-Fi bill, since Wi-fi is just how you access your internet wirelessly. But some internet service providers charge an extra fee for Wi-Fi enabled modems and routers. Usually, the average Wi-Fi cost for this is $5–$15 a month.
Can I buy a WiFi router and not pay monthly?
There’s never a fee to use your own router, but there usually is a fee ($5-10 extra per month) to rent a modem from your cable or phone company. Your alternative is to buy your own modem and router, or a combination modem+router unit, and contact the cable or phone company to set it up for your connection.
Can you use Wi-Fi without paying?
