How to choose the services of your Internet box ?

• A box Quadruple play Provides Internet access, telephone, TV, and offers discounts on the prices of mobile packages of the same operator.

The price of an internet box is directly linked to the services included. For some ISPs like Red, Coriolis or Sosh the transition from a double play to a triple play is done by activating a paid TV option, which may if necessary be deactivated later.

On the fiber, the FAIs also offer more or less large internet connection flows. There too the more the maximum flow is important the higher the price is high. Thanks to an overview The Internet box comparator allows you to find your way.

ADSL/VDSL2, fiber, 4G, satellite: which internet box to choose ?

The government launched in 2013 the very high speed France plan which aims to cover very high speed internet by 2022. Thus, for several years, operators have deployed optical fibers authorizing efficient internet access. Most cities in France now have this fiber optic access, and this solution exclusively that will be offered to you by the access provider if you are in an area eligible for fiber optic. Fiber access will allow you to obtain flow rates of several hundred Mbit/s and up to approximately a theoretical maximum of 2000 Mb/s (at Orange, SFR or Bouygues Telecom) or even 8000 MBP/S (at Free with L ‘Freebox Delta offer).

When the optical fiber reaches up to your accommodation it is called it FTTH (Fiber to the Home), New buildings are equipped as standard with fiber optic access, but this is not the case for old housing for which the Internet service provider must do work to bring an optical fiber from a connection point in the Street to your accommodation. SFR which has recovered the coaxial network used historically by Numéricable TV, offers in certain situations to use this already existing coaxial cable in the accommodation to make the link between fiber optics in the street and housing. This solution avoids the installation of an optical fiber in the accommodation, it is called the Fttla (fiber to the last amplifier).

In the event that your street has not yet been equipped with fiber optics, the Internet service provider will offer you to stay on access from existing telephone lines: this is theADSL With a speed of a maximum of 18 Mbit/s, and even up to more than 50 Mbit/s in VDSL2 In the event that you are less than 1km from the telephone central.

Technology	Theoretical maximum flow rate
ADSL	18 Mbit/s
VDSL	50 Mbit/s
Fiber	2000 Mbit/s

The more isolated areas which will not be equipped with fiber optics for a few years, and which are located several kilometers from the telephone central, can only benefit with ADSL from a very low internet speed. In order to offer high -speed Internet access, Internet service providers offer 4G box offers based on the 4G cellular network. A 4G box solution cannot claim to reach the internet speeds of a box using optical fiber, but remains much more efficient than an ADSL solution, providing speeds of up to 300 Mbit/s.

In all cases, The Internet service provider will confirm the eligibility one of the offers (fiber, ADSL/VDSL2 or 4G box). Depending on your geographic address.

In some particularly isolated areas none of the Fiber solutions of ADSL or 4G box is satisfactory to give high speed Internet. In this case it is possible to use A satellite internet offer.

How to choose the wifi of your internet box ?

The most common use, especially for smartphones, tablets. Or portable microcomputers, is to use WiFi to connect to the Internet through your box.

The cheapest internet boxes offer entry -level WiFi (WiFi 4 on a single frequency band 2.4GHz), sufficient for small dwellings without strong speed constraints.

The more expensive boxes offer Wifi 5 or WiFi 6 in double bands 2.4GHz and 5GHz which allow higher flows and better quality.

High -end boxes of certain suppliers also include the provision of a WiFi repeater To cover a large accommodation.

How to choose a box without obligation ?

Define your maximum budget

You should know that the overwhelming majority of internet offers see their prices increase after 12 months : During the first year, you benefit from an enticing promotional rate, but which disappears after 1 year. It is therefore important to look at the overall cost of an internet box without bodity over 12 or 24 months.

Outside, in the case of subscriptions without obligation, since you can solve when you want, You can avoid this price increase after 12 months and switch to an offer from another operator at attractive prices. It is therefore possible to stay on a budget of 20 or 25 € per month (or even less in promotion periods) by regularly changing offers.

Some internet non -binding packages sometimes have a Guaranteed price for life (no price increase after 12 months), this was the case for RED offers in the past.

Debit, TV channels, telephony: your preferences

The more the services included in a non -binding box, the more expensive the offer will be. The Sosh and Red boxes, which are low-cost offers, have No basic TV services, With a decoder provided. You can only have TV via an app, and the number of channels is restricted.

THE Calls to mobile lines are not always included for free, unlike free offers that have telephony to mobiles always understood. If you are looking for the best TV Internet Box without obligation, it is difficult to beat the value for money of the Freebox, which has more than 220 channels and VOD bouquets (like Amazon Prime or Disney+) sometimes included for free 3 to 12 months.

Finally, in terms of flows, there too, we are entitled to connection speeds below 1 Gbit/s for the cheapest non-obligation internet offers, while beyond € 30 per month, we have access to boxes that offer a descending flow rate greater than 1 or 2 Gbit/s.

Suppliers such as Red or Sosh offer “Plus flow” options To increase the flow of their basic offers, but these are of course paid.

The principle of commitment

On the telecoms market since 2008, the Chatel law prohibited operators to include a duration of engagement greater than 24 months. This law is therefore synonymous with simplification for the termination of packages. The termination price of a contract greater than 12 months has also become more advantageous.

It exists on the market 3 types of commitment ::

• Subscriptions with commitment 12 months.
• Subscriptions with 24 -month commitment.
• Without obligation subscriptions.

Internet subscriptions mainly include a 12 -month commitment or are without commitment. Internet packages without commitment are without termination costs: they allow their holders to terminate at any moment Without paying supplement. More explanations in our article on the functioning of the termination of a subscription.
