How much does Viasat cost?

Viasat internet starts at $70/mo for Viasat Unleashed (150 Mbps) and ranges up to the Viasat Unleashed plan at $100/mo (150 Mbps). The plan you pick should match how your household actually uses the internet, not just the lowest sticker price.

As with most providers, the advertised rate is usually a promotional price. Promotions can step up after the intro period, and equipment, taxes and one-time fees can change your final bill. A KonnectX specialist gives you the real, all-in monthly cost up front so there are no surprises on your first statement.

Choosing the right Viasat plan

If you mostly browse, email and stream on a few devices, the entry-level Viasat Unleashed plan (150 Mbps) at $100/mo is plenty.

For a busy home with 4K streaming, gaming, smart-home gear and several people online at once, step up to Viasat Unleashed (150 Mbps). The full lineup with current pricing is in the comparison table above — pick the tier that covers your peak usage, not your average.

What to expect from Viasat

Satellite speeds are enough for browsing, email and streaming, though they trail wired options. Uploads are modest, so satellite is best for consuming content rather than heavy uploading.

Latency is higher than wired connections and heavy weather can briefly affect the signal. In short, Viasat is a strong choice for rural and remote addresses that wired and 5G providers don't reach.

Viasat equipment, Wi-Fi & installation

A satellite dish and modem are required; newer low-orbit options self-install in under an hour. Ask whether your plan includes the gateway or adds a monthly rental — over a year that fee adds up.

Setup is handled by a technician, with newer low-orbit kits self-installable. A specialist schedules the appointment and tells you exactly what's included.

Viasat contracts, fees & data caps

Viasat contract terms vary by plan and promotion — some offers require a term agreement with an early termination fee, while others are contract-free. We confirm the terms before you commit.

Satellite plans may prioritize data during congestion, but are built for normal household use. Watch for installation and equipment charges, which a specialist will spell out.

How Viasat compares to other providers

Whether Viasat is your best option depends entirely on your address. A fiber provider might beat it on a neighboring street, while Viasat could be the clear winner on yours — coverage is that local.

Instead of trusting a generic "best provider" list, enter your ZIP above. KonnectX puts Viasat side by side with every other provider that actually reaches your home so you can compare real speeds and prices, then choose the best value for your needs.

Is Viasat right for you?

Viasat is an excellent match for rural and remote addresses that wired and 5G providers don't reach. Nationwide.

It may be less ideal if higher latency makes it less ideal for competitive gaming and large live video calls. Either way, we'll tell you honestly whether Viasat or a competitor is the better buy at your address.
