No. Your electric provider provides your electric service and Conexon Connect provides your internet service separately from each other. You will receive a bill from both. Additionally, our service does not impact your electric provider's bills.
Conexon Connect Projects
Building a network is generally a multi-year intensive project encompassing numerous steps and efforts. For each project, the network is built in phases, and each phase typically takes about 12 to 18 months from construction start to customer installation.
With Conexon Connect, it's finally easy to be connected online. We let you stream high-definition media smoothly and quickly, you’ll have the data capacity to download and upload data such as files, photos and videos at super-fast speeds, and you’ll have access to the latest technological advancements and applications. With our top-tier packages, you can run multiple devices – such as cell phones, computers and laptops – simultaneously in your home or business without decreased download and upload speeds. There are no data caps or bandwidth throttling (intentional slowing or speeding of internet service) with our service.
Installation and Connection
Once you sign up for service, fiber installation is simple. We pull fiber from our main lines and follow power lines to attach the fiber to your home or business. The fiber will run to your home or business in the same manner power lines run to your home or business. If your electric service comes from overhead lines, so will your broadband service. If your electric service comes from underground lines, so will your broadband service. Next, we attach the fiber line to a box near your electric meter where the inside wiring connects with the outside wiring. Finally, the fiber is connected to a fiber jack inside your home or office, where it’s plugged into the modem we provide.
Construction crews pulling and hanging the fiber and taking it to your home’s outside wiring are preparing the network to go live once construction in the area is complete. A Conexon Connect employee will contact you to schedule an appointment for an in-home installer to finalize your connection and test the services from your equipment. Once that install is complete and tested, your service should be ready to go.
If you purchase or receive Managed Wi-Fi as a part of your internet package, you don't need to purchase any equipment.
Managed Wi-Fi includes a router to provide your home with the best experience. It also watch for potential issues and will auto-heal the network to make your devices run as smoothly as possible. This service also gives us advanced troubleshooting abilities if you do need to call us with an issue.
If you want to use your own Wi-Fi router, you certainly can and can connect it directly to our modem.
Note: If your computer does not have a network interface card (NIC) or support Wi-Fi, then additional equipment purchases may be required. If this is the case, you may want to consider a computer upgrade to get the best experience from the Conexon Connect network.
Conexon provides two pieces of equipment that are required to connect your home to the Internet. One piece is an Optical Network Terminal (ONT) that converts the signal coming into your home to a wired ethernet connection. That wired ethernet connection then connects to a combination router/firewall and wireless access point, also called a Home Gateway, which is the second device.
The Home Gateway supports the following wireless protocols:
- 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz, simultaneous dual-band
- 5 GHz 802.11ax (Wi-Fi 6) certified, 802.11a/n/ac compatible
- 6x6 streams (2x2 @ 2.4 GHz and 4x4 @ 5 GHz)
- 2.4 GHz 802.11ax (Wi-Fi 6) certified, 802.11b/g/ac compatible
The Home Gateway has four wired 1 Gbps ethernet ports to support wired devices.
Residents may notice changes in their neighborhoods, such as adjustments to trees or natural terrain. Our primary goal is to minimize our impact, making only necessary modifications to enhance service quality, reduce outages, improve public safety, and prevent property damage. We are dedicated to treating affected residents and their property with care, respect, and professionalism. If right-of-way changes affect your home or property, we will work with you to ensure the process is as smooth and accommodating as possible.

Yes, in fact, we encourage paperless billing, online payments, and automatic bank debit. Because this process can take up to 30 days to be effective, AutoPay will not work for your first bill, so please plan on making a one-time payment by check, credit card, or another method for your first bill.
Effective with your August dated Bill Statement, you can begin mailing payments to the remittance address listed on that August Bill Statement from Conexon Connect:
Dept #6546 Conexon Connect LLC PO Box 11407 Birmingham AL 35246-6546
You will know AutoPay is in effect when you receive a billing statement from the Conexon Connect platform that reflects the message below indicating your account is set up to be drafted for payment. Please note our system will never draft an AutoPay if a payment has already been posted for that bill cycle.
Partial month charges are calculated by taking the Monthly Service Charge divided by 30 to get the per day rate. The per day rate times the number of days in the partial month equate to the partial month charge.
Your first month's bill will capture billing from your install date to the date of the established billing cycle as well as a month in advance. Conexon Connect has four billing cycles based on your install date (7th, 14th, 22nd and 28th) The example below shows service installed on 10/7, billed on 10/22 bill cycle. The next bill cycle will reflect the expected Monthly Charges which will include billing for service a month in advance.
In certain markets, Conexon Connect may incur higher-than-expected costs to offer services. In those markets, Connect may pass through a cost recovery charge to customers. As an example, Conexon Connect frequently uses the electric infrastructure (poles) for our transmission infrastructure, for which we may pay a fee. Recovering these costs is necessary for us to provide service in these markets. If this charge applies to you, you will see a “Pole Attachment Cost Recovery Fee" line item on your invoice.
MyConnectHome gives you easy access to a snapshot view of your home or small business network. Through the app you can view all the connected devices on your network, set up parental controls or a guest network, change your SSID and password, and more.

The net amount is due within 20 days from the billing date. After 20 days, a $10 late fee will be assessed. Failure to receive an invoice does not release customers from their obligation to pay. A subsequent late fee of $10 is billed on day 60 if no payment received.
Disconnect notices. Customers failing to pay on time will be sent a disconnect notice 60 days from invoice date. Upon expiration of the notice, service may be disconnected. Receiving the next monthly invoice does not replace or void the disconnect notice. Payment of the past due invoice is required before service is restored. A service reconnect charge will apply, and a deposit may also be required.
Returned check fees. A $20 fee will be charged for all returned items.
