Best Internet Plans in Toronto (2026)

Toronto has the most internet choice of any city in Canada — which means Rogers and Bell customers here are overpaying by the widest margin. The same cable and fibre running into your condo is resold by independents for $30–50 less a month, and in many downtown buildings there’s an even better option most people have never heard of.

The short answer

If you’re in a Beanfield-wired building downtown, take it — symmetrical gigabit fibre at $70/mo beats everything. Otherwise VMedia at $38.95 is the cheapest way onto the cable network, and oxio the simplest. TekSavvy is worth a quote for its no-term terms, but price it at its regular $74.95 rather than the first-year offer.

The Beanfield advantage

Toronto’s hidden gem is Beanfield, which has wired symmetrical fibre directly into a large number of downtown and midtown condos and buildings. If you live in one, you get gigabit-up, gigabit-down fibre with no contract and free equipment for $70/mo — cheaper than either a Rogers or a Bell gigabit plan in Ontario, and the only one of the three that doesn’t ask for a term commitment. The only question is whether your building is connected, so check your address first.

If Beanfield isn’t at your address

Most of Toronto is served by Rogers cable and Bell fibre — and by the independents that resell those same lines. TekSavvy runs on the cable network for $74.95/mo, which is what Rogers charges for its $75/mo entry plan — the saving there is the term commitment you don’t sign, not the monthly figure. Its advertised $38.95 is a twelve-month new-customer credit. oxio is a much narrower saving at the gigabit end, so take it for the free eero router and the no-annual-hike promise rather than for the headline price. VMedia is the rock-bottom entry point.

The full Toronto picture

What to look for in Toronto

• Check Beanfield first if you’re downtown or in a condo — it’s often the best and cheapest option in one.
• Independents over Rogers/Bell for cable — same lines, much lower price.
• Condo bulk deals: some buildings have a bulk internet arrangement baked into your fees — check before signing up for your own.
• Confirm your address. Even in Toronto, availability is building-specific.

Switching costs less than it used to

The CRTC’s 2026 fee decision amended the Internet Code as well as the Wireless Code. Since June 12, 2026, a provider subject to the Internet Code can’t charge you an activation or modification fee, on the same terms as wireless — so signing up somewhere cheaper no longer starts with a setup charge. Our CRTC fee ban explainer has the detail.

Two things it does not cover, and both matter for home internet: reasonable installation fees at your address are still allowed, and so are fees for optional extras you agree to buy. A promotional rate tied to a term commitment is also untouched — if you leave early, you can still lose the discount.
