How Long Does Viasat Take to Set Up?

Signing up for Viasat internet and getting it all set up can happen really quickly. The signing up part could possibly only take a few minutes. After you figure out what your internet needs are, you can choose a plan on the Viasat website or by talking to a customer service representative. If you know what kind of plan you’re looking for, this step won’t take any time at all.

You will then schedule a time for a professional Viasat technician to install and set up your new internet. This can usually be scheduled within 3 to 5 days of signing up, but it mostly depends on what times are convenient for you, since you or someone else will need to be home at the time of installation.

When the time for set up arrives, the technician will bring all the necessary hardware and equipment and perform all the installation and set up to give you the most solid internet connection possible. This will include mounting your satellite dish, aligning it with the Viasat satellite in space, connecting it to your modem, and setting up your Viasat home network. This whole process will take about 2 to 3 hours.

So if you’re interested in getting better internet for your rural location, just sign up today and you can have it fully set up in less than a week!
