In today’s world, almost every part of our lives—from working and learning to relaxing and connecting with friends—depends on a fast, stable internet connection. If you’re setting up a home office, moving into a new house, or simply tired of buffering during your favourite shows or lag during video calls, you deserve better. With Rocket Fibre, you no longer have to navigate long wait times, confusing fees, or conflicting appointments with multiple providers. We’ve reimagined the installation process so that getting your broadband connection is as simple as ordering a pizza.

With friendly, UK-based customer service on call 24/7, you’ll have the support you need from start to finish.
This guide covers everything you need to know about Rocket Fibre’s rapid setup: how to pick the perfect plan, prepare for your engineer visit, and enjoy a seamless, high-speed internet experience without the usual headaches.
Why Fast Installation Matters
Modern life depends on reliable internet. Slow or delayed installation affects:
• Work and School: Video calls, cloud apps, and online classes grind to a halt without a stable connection.
• Entertainment: Streaming 4K shows or multi-player gaming suffers from buffering or lag.
• Smart Homes: Security cameras, smart thermostats, and voice assistants lose sync.
• Billing and Appointments: Missing documents and missed calls cost time and money.
Major providers often quote two-week waits or longer during peak times. Virgin Media and others bundle TV and phone but can’t beat Rocket Fibre’s rapid deployment for pure full-fibre broadband. With our offer next day broadband promise, you won’t miss a beat.

Preparing Your Home for Installation
A smooth installation day starts with a little preparation:
Select Your Router Spot
Choose a central, elevated location for your new wireless router. This ensures strong Wi-Fi throughout. Avoid basements, enclosed cabinets, or behind large TVs that block signals.
Clear Access to Your Telecom Point
Most full-fibre installs begin at a street cabinet or a nearby distribution point. Ensure there’s clear access from property boundary to your chosen router spot. Trim hedges, ensure gates unlock, and clear pathways.
Existing Phone Line Check
If you already have a copper phone line and only need an additional fibre connection, let our team know. We can co-ordinate both services in one visit. If you require a brand-new phone socket, our engineer will install that too, usually at no extra charge.
Gather Any Permissions
Limited number of properties require permission from landlords or shared-driveway access agreements. If you share a building with others, confirm you have rights to external cable runs.
What to Expect on Installation Day
Rocket Fibre’s engineer follows a clear, step-by-step process:
Arrival and Safety Check
Our technician arrives in branded gear, introduces themselves, and conducts a brief site assessment to confirm the installation plan.
Fibre-Optic Cable Run
A single fibre-optic cable is routed from the street cabinet to your home. The engineer uses existing ducts and conduits where possible, minimising wall-chasing or new drilling.
Optical Network Terminal (ONT)
Installed inside, the ONT converts the fibre signal to Ethernet for your router. Typically placed near your chosen router spot.
Router Setup
We supply a high-performance Wi-Fi 6 router, already configured for Rocket Fibre’s network. The engineer connects it to the ONT, powers it on, and tests both wired and wireless links.
Line Testing
For bundled phone services, the engineer tests your telephone line—dial tone, call clarity, and voicemail features.
Speed and Stability Checks
Live speed tests confirm you’re getting the full package speed. We test at various times to ensure stability and reliability.
Client Walk-Through
The engineer shows you how to log in to your router admin page, change your Wi-Fi password, and manage devices. They confirm installation times met your expectations.
Handover & Sign-Off
Once you approve the installation, the engineer logs the work, leaves a quick-start guide, and hands over contact details for support.
Minimising Disruption at Peak Times
Peak hours (5 pm–8 pm) can slow other providers’ installations. Rocket Fibre works around the clock, offering slots throughout the day—including early mornings or late afternoons—to fit your schedule. We know evenings are prime time for family internet use, so we aim to complete installs outside your critical usage window whenever possible.
Understanding Installation Costs
Rocket Fibre prides itself on transparency:
• Free Standard Installation
• No charge when you choose a qualifying full-fibre plan on a 12- or 24-month contract.
• No Hidden Fees
• No extra charges for professional labour, standard cable runs, or basic socket work.
• Custom Quotes
• If your property requires substantial new cabling, long external runs, or multiple internal sockets, our team provides a detailed quote before any work begins.
Many competitors advertise “free installation” but tack on fees or require long contracts. Rocket Fibre’s approach is simple: free standard setup, fair pricing for any extras, and no surprise bills.

Comparing Rocket Fibre with Other Providers
Many ISP’s , bundle TV and phone with broadband. However, their installation windows often stretch to two weeks, and they charge upfront fees. Here’s why Rocket Fibre stands out:
• Next-Day Setup vs Two-Week Wait: Get online by tomorrow, not next month.
• Free Standard Installation vs Hidden Fees: No surprise charges for basic cable runs.
• Symmetric Speeds vs Asymmetric Plans: Enjoy equal download and upload rates.
• Transparent Deals vs Complex Bundles: Simple pricing, clear contract terms.
• 24/7 UK Support vs Offshore Call Centres: Real experts, anytime you need.
When you compare broadband providers offer side by side, Rocket Fibre’s mix of speed, cost, and service quality wins every time.
