Depending on your address and the Fiber plan you select, you may be eligible to self-install your Fiber internet service and Google Fiber Phone service. Two kits are available:
- Self-Installation Kit for Google Fiber (internet service)
- Self-Installation Kit for Google Fiber Phone (phone service)
Self-installation is available for our internet-only plans and for Google Fiber Phone. If you're eligible for self-installation, Google has already installed external equipment and a Fiber Jack in your home.
Requirements
Self-installation requires no tools and minimal technical skills. To help you decide if self-installation is right for you, have a look at the Self-Installation Kit or Google Fiber Phone Self-Installation Kit instructions for installing your Fiber Network Box or Google Wifi points.
After you sign up for a Self-Installation Kit, we'll send you an email that tells you when you can pick up the kit from the Fiber Space (typically the same day) or, if you chose to have your kit shipped, an estimated delivery date and a tracking number for your package.
