How much is Google Fiber?
Google Fiber, now called gFiber, costs $70 a month for 1 Gig, $100 for 3 Gig and $150 for 8 Gig as of October 28, 2026, plus taxes and a local access fee.[1] The router is included, and gFiber advertises a price that does not change, saying the 1 Gig rate has stayed the same since 2012.[1]
| Plan | Price per month | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| 1 Gig | $70 | Up to 1 Gbps up and down, Wi-Fi 6E router, self setup or free pro install[1] |
| 3 Gig | $100 | Up to 3 Gbps up and down, Wi-Fi 7 router, in-home consult and wiring of up to two rooms if eligible[1] |
| 8 Gig | $150 | Up to 8 Gbps up and down, Wi-Fi 7 router with 10G port, battery backup included[1] |
Prices are plus taxes and a local access fee that gFiber says goes back to the community.[1] Equipment is included in the monthly price on every tier; a replacement fee can apply if gear is not returned after canceling.[1]
The catch is where it exists. In our FCC data, Google Fiber reports service in 15 states, and even there it covers specific cities and neighborhoods such as Austin, Kansas City, Nashville, Charlotte, Atlanta, Salt Lake Valley, Omaha and San Antonio, not whole metros.[2][1] Two streets apart can mean gFiber on one and cable only on the other.
Check our ZIP code internet availability checker to see which fiber and cable providers the FCC lists near you. If AT&T Fiber is also on your street, our AT&T Fiber vs Google Fiber guide compares the two after year one, when AT&T's discount ends and gFiber's flat price stays put.
