Bell announced the launch of its new Giga Hub 2.0 modem, bringing Wi-Fi 7 – the world’s best and latest Wi-Fi technology – to Canadian homes for the first time on its Pure Fibre network, Canada’s fastest Internet1 as named by Ookla in their Speedtest AwardsTM. Customers in major areas of Ontario – including Toronto and the GTA, Ottawa, London, Windsor, Kitchener, Guelph, Barrie, Collingwood and Bradford – as well as Québec City and surrounding areas can now experience next-generation Wi-Fi performance built for today’s connected lifestyles.
With Canadians returning to back-to-school and their regular routines, Bell’s Giga Hub 2.0 with Wi-Fi 7 technology delivers the speed, responsiveness and capacity needed to power connected homes.
