Summary:
- Data caps hit you with overage fees or throttle your speeds when you’re streaming, gaming, or working, during normal household use.
- Over 25,000 Fort Collins households already made the switch to Connexion’s truly unlimited fiber internet with no contracts or surprise fees.
- Connexion starts at $70/month for 1-Gig unlimited service, while competitors charge more for capped plans plus equipment fees and overages.
- Community-owned fiber means no hidden agendas, just fair pricing and transparent service designed for how you actually use the internet.
You finish streaming a Friday movie night, download a software update, and join three back-to-back Zoom calls. A week later, your internet bill arrives. No surprise overage charges. No rate hike after a promotional period ends. Just the same fair price you signed up for.
For many Fort Collins residents on traditional ISP plans, this scenario is impossible. But it doesn’t have to be. The average internet user consumes 641GB per month, and that number keeps climbing. Modern households doing normal things—streaming, remote work, gaming, smart home devices—easily exceed old data limits. The question isn’t whether you need unlimited data. It’s whether you want a provider that charges you for it or one that’s designed around it.
Fort Collins residents have a better option: a community-owned fiber network that delivers unlimited internet with transparent pricing, local support, and no lock-in contracts.
What’s Really Happening With Data Usage
Here’s the reality: most households are using more internet than traditional providers’ old data limits allowed. Streaming, video calls, cloud backups, and smart home devices run 24/7, consuming far more data than people realize.
Common activities and their data costs:
- Streaming Netflix in HD for 3 hours daily: ~270GB monthly
- 8 hours of Zoom group calls daily: ~6-20GB per day depending on video quality, or roughly 130-150GB monthly for a full-time remote worker
- Gaming downloads: 50-150GB per game
- Smart home cameras (Ring, etc.): 50-300GB monthly depending on video quality
- Cloud photo backups: 20-100GB monthly
- Regular software updates and background syncing: 30-50GB monthly
Put this together in a typical household with multiple users, and you’re easily at 600-800GB monthly, often exceeding old-school data caps entirely.
The Shift in ISP Policies
The internet landscape changed in 2025. Xfinity eliminated its data caps nationwide and now offers unlimited data across all plans. CenturyLink offers unlimited data on all fiber and DSL plans. Quantum Fiber provides unlimited data with no annual contracts.
So why choose Connexion? Because unlimited data alone isn’t enough anymore. What matters is how you get that unlimited data and who controls it.
Why Community Ownership Changes Everything
When you sign up for Connexion, you’re not just buying internet. You’re joining a community utility designed to serve Fort Collins residents first, not maximize distant shareholders’ returns.
This alignment creates a fundamentally different service model:
- Une tarification transparente : Connexion’s rates are set by the city and publicly disclosed. No hidden fees. No promotional pricing tricks. The price you see is the price you pay, month after month.
- Local Reinvestment: Revenue from Connexion stays in Fort Collins, funding infrastructure improvements and service expansion. You’re supporting your community, not a corporate headquarters in another state.
- Real Customer Support: When you call Connexion, you reach local support staff who understand Fort Collins and can actually help. Not a national call center reading from scripts.
No Contracts, No Trap: You’re on a month-to-month plan by default. Want to change plans? Upgrade speeds? Cancel? No early termination fees. No penalties. You stay because the service is worth it, not because you’re locked in.
One customer who switched from a competitor put it this way:
“Absolutely stellar ISP/fiber network. Puts it’s competitors to absolute shame in every single category. Phone operators are knowledgeable, technicians know exactly what they’re doing, the infrastructure is solid, pricing is far more reasonable than anything else out there, and every “issue” I’ve experienced was remedied both quickly and effectively… This is ISP done right.”

If you’re renting, Connexion fiber is available at most MDUs (apartments, condos, and townhomes) within Fort Collins city limits. We recommend getting landlord approval before installation, particularly in properties without previous Connexion service, since it involves trenching. Month-to-month service means no lease complications once installed.
When switching from another provider, maintain your current service until Connexion activates to ensure service continuity throughout the entire installation process.
