Installations are based on availability from the phone service provider and we will strive to have your service installed at the earliest possible time. This is usually within 10 – 15 business days. We recommend installing the Internet a couple of days following the fully tested installation of the working phone line.
All our phone features are included in our low monthly cost! You will get features such as Caller ID, Call Waiting, Call Forwarding, Voicemail, Fail to Cell, and Unlimited Canada and US Calling.
Fail to Cell is a feature only we offer for free with our phone service. In the event of the internet going down or power going out this feature temporarily forwards all your calls to the cell phone number provided. This ensures you do not miss any important calls.
The installation fee is an administrative fee; therefore, we are unable to waive this as it goes towards all the work put into your order.

Our Phone and Internet pricing is bundled when both services are purchased, or if a service is added at any time. Our TV package is separate as it is already discounted to the lowest possible price that we can offer. All billing appears on the same invoice each month.
You will need to personally cancel all services with your previous provider. We suggest cancelling after you have been successfully installed with IceNet. If you are transferring a phone number from the previous provider to IceNet, then this would be an exception as it will automatically cancel once the transfer is complete.
We strive to make sure our services are consistent and affordable for everyone by keeping our monthly costs lower than the competition. We do not plan to raise prices, and if we ever do our customers will be notified in advance.
At the time of inquiry, we qualify the type of connection and/or offer you a connection that works well with our Phone service to ensure you get quality service. Intermittent internet connection will cause phone delays.
We recommend using a cordless phone set because the main base would connect to our phone box and then the other phones can be placed anywhere in your home without needing your jacks.

A modem provides you with internet service. Modems receive internet by being connected to coaxial cable or sometimes a DSL phone cable. Internet can be used directly to you by connecting to the included ethernet port, or wirelessly by connecting a wireless router to the included ethernet port.
A wireless router receives the internet service from your modem, and makes it wirelessly available to you. Routers usually have 2 or more antennas on top, however some models have an internal antenna which does not visibly show.
The default network name and password are usually written on a factory provided label on the bottom of the hardware.
The colour of your cable or cord does not matter when connecting your devices, however the colour of the port you are connecting the cable to usually does matter. Be sure to check labels of ports. Usually modem and router ports are labelled with small lettering directly below/above the port. e.g. LAN, WAN, ETH. If you are still unsure, give our tech support line a call anytime.
There are a few things to check. Firstly, is your TV on and the right satellite channel selected? Secondly, is the receiver or PVR powered on and connected to the TV in the correct port? If you still not cannot see anything on the screen, press the input or source button on your TV remote until picture shows. If still unable to see anything there might be a technical issue occuring, call our tech support line anytime.
Usually this means the coaxial cable connected to the back of the receiver/PVR is disconnected or loose. If all cables are tight and connected, then “Signal Lost” can also be caused by the satellite dish not being pointed in the proper direction. Sometimes storms or other interference can cause physical movement of the dish and that can cause loss of signal. Power cycle the receiver/PVR, wait 5 minutes, and if the “Signal Lost” message is still showing then give our technical support line a call to try to resolve the issue.
Open the IceNet channel guide provided to all of our satellite TV customers. If you cannot find the guide that’s okay! See our website’s channel guide, view the matching package (Silver, Gold, or Platinum), there will be a list of channels belonging to your package. If you still cannot find the channel then give us a call and we can find it for you.
