Before ordering from Cogent Communications

Verify the final order summary before accepting service. Save a copy that lists the plan name, expected speed range, recurring price, promotion length, equipment, one-time charges, and contract terms. If a plan is intended for streaming, remote work, gaming, or several connected devices, compare both speed and network reliability rather than choosing on advertised download speed alone.
