Home internet in Estonia is decided by your address before it is decided by your budget. Fibre passes 77% of households against an EU average of 64%, but the regulator's own address data says 52% of addresses can reach more than one cable network, 25% can reach exactly one, and 23% have no cable network at all. Which of those three groups your building falls into is the whole decision. In the first you are choosing between operators; in the second you are choosing between the incumbent of that building and a 5G box; in the third the 5G box is the offer.
The second thing to know is that the operators do not all tell you what they charge. Telia publishes a dated price list covering every speed tier it sells. Tele2 prints both a campaign price and the list price that follows it on the product page itself. STV, the third-largest fixed operator in the country, publishes a full ladder with its VAT rate stated. Elisa publishes nothing: its household internet pages carry no monthly figure until an address is entered, so every Elisa price you will see quoted anywhere is somebody's snapshot of an offer made to one building.
Everything below is the operator's own published figure or nothing at all. Speeds, terms and installation fees come from the same documents. Where an operator publishes only a speed and not a price, the speed is what appears.

Fibre, cable and fixed wireless
Three technologies serve Estonian homes and they are not interchangeable. Fibre to the building (valguskaabel) is the one every operator sells hardest, and it is the only one where the advertised upload speed matches the download. Cable and copper — the old television and telephone networks, upgraded — still carry a large share of connections and are asymmetric: a cable package sold as 100 Mbit/s will often upload at a tenth of that. Fixed wireless is a router with a SIM card in it, sitting on a windowsill, using the same 4G and 5G masts your phone uses.
The share each carries is the part that surprises people who have read that Estonia is a fibre country. Fibre passes 77% of households but carries 35% of actual connections, and about 13% of fixed connections are now a wireless box rather than a cable. Availability and take-up are different numbers and only one of them is in the headlines.
Ownership of the wire and sale of the service are separate businesses, which is why the operator list is longer than the network list. Enefit Connect, the network arm of the state energy group, has built fibre past roughly 80,000 households and sells nothing to them: it charges a household €199 to €299 to connect, in interest-free instalments if wanted, and the household then picks a retail operator to run over it. Telia is under a regulatory obligation to let other operators use its own network, cable ducts and cables included, at a rent. That wholesale layer is why 250 communications undertakings were on the register at the end of 2024 while three operators — Telia, Elisa and STV — between them served about 92% of fixed-broadband end users.
Check the address, not the operator, and do it before you sign the lease
The regulator maintains netikaart, an address-by-address availability map built from what the largest operators report. A green point means a connection is possible there and shows the maximum speed; a red point means it is not, and the map can be filtered by download speed. It is the only way to find out in advance whether a flat is in the 52% with a choice or the 23% with no cable at all, and it takes a minute. See renting for the rest of the pre-signature checks.
Speed tiers themselves have drifted upward without most households moving with them. The regulator's yearbook for 2024 records connections at 100 to 500 Mbit/s rising five points on the year to 39% of users, and 95% of Estonian households now have internet of some kind. The share of households that need a gigabit is, by the regulator's own count, close to nothing.
Who actually sells it
Four names cover almost every household offer worth comparing. Telia, Elisa and Tele2 are the three national operators and also the three mobile networks, which is covered separately on SIM cards. STV is a city cable and fibre company that is nonetheless the third-largest fixed-broadband operator in the country by end users, and Infonet resells over the same network at the same prices. The cards below run in the order of who publishes most about their own prices, which is the only ordering the evidence supports.
No operator on this page has paid for placement and none of the links below is a commission link: each goes to the operator's own public price or product page. The cards are ordered by how much each operator publishes about its own prices, which reflects no commercial relationship of any kind. Some other pages on this site carry commission links, and those are marked where they appear.

The published packages
Put the three published lists beside each other and the market is more orderly than the marketing suggests. At every comparable speed the city cable operator is the cheapest, the incumbent is the dearest, and the third national operator sits between them on list price while advertising a campaign price below both.
| Speed | Telia, from 1 Jul 2026 | Tele2, list price | STV, from 5 Aug 2026 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 20 Mbit/s | €19.31 (20/4) | — | €17.27 (20/20) |
| 50 Mbit/s | — | €19.99 (50/50) | €21.34 (50/50) |
| 100 Mbit/s | €27.90 (100/100) | — | €25.41 (100/100) |
| 150–250 Mbit/s | €31.00 (200/200) | €25.99 (150/150) | €29.47 (250/250) |
| 400–500 Mbit/s | €36.16 (400/400) | €30.99 (500/500) | €34.56 (500/500) |
| 1 Gbit/s | €55.90 | €40.99 | €45.74 |
| 2.5 Gbit/s | €95.00 | — | — |
Every figure above includes 24% VAT, because all three lists say so. Elisa is absent from the table for the reason given at the top: its household pages publish no monthly figure. What Elisa does publish is the speed ladder for its fixed-wireless packages, from 15/3 Mbit/s to 500/50 Mbit/s, and the fact that none of them carries a data cap.
The regulator has taken a public position on whether these numbers are high, which is unusual and worth reading. Its answer, published in reply to a newspaper claim that Estonian broadband is an outlier: about 75% of users buy packages up to 100 Mbit/s, that tier costs around €25 a month, everything up to 500 Mbit/s sits below the European average, and a gigabit costs €80 to €100 because fewer than 0.01% of customers want one. The published lists above bear the first half out: €25.41 and €27.90 sit either side of €25.
Two numbers on one page, and the second one is the real one
A campaign price runs for the length of the contract and the list price starts the month after it. Tele2 prints both: the gigabit package is €21.50 for 24 months and €40.99 from month 25, and the entry tier goes from €14.50 to €19.99. Budget on the second number. An operator that shows only the first is not showing you what you agreed to.
Router rental is the line most often left out of a comparison and it is not small over a two-year term. Telia charges €4.13 a month for the fibre and copper routers alike and €6.99 for the 5G box; STV charges €5.08 for a Wi-Fi 6 router; Tele2 rents its 5G router at €9.99 a month or sells it for €282. Rented for the 24 months of a contract, that €9.99 is more than the purchase price of a router you would then own.
The term and leaving early
Two different things are commonly confused: the subscription contract, which is open-ended, and the commitment attached to a discount, which is not. Elisa's own pre-contract information sheet — a document every consumer is entitled to before signing, under the electronic communications rules — states that the subscription contract is open-ended and can be ended at any time, and that what creates a liability on leaving is equipment bought on discounted terms against an obligation to use the service for a fixed period. Leave early and the terminal equipment has to be bought out and a handling fee paid. Telia's general terms put the same thing more bluntly: early termination of a fixed-term contract means compensation, a handling fee or other costs set in the contract itself.
The regulator's position on how a contract ends is worth knowing before an operator tells you otherwise. In November 2025 it stated that a consumer may end a communications contract by notifying the provider, and that the contract ends on the business day after the notice whatever the provider confirms; and that a term allowing termination only by going to a shop, where the contract could be signed online in the first place, probably restricts consumer rights unreasonably. It opened supervision proceedings against an operator whose online termination form did not work.
| What the published terms actually say | |
|---|---|
| Contract term | Subscription open-ended; the campaign discount carries a 24-month commitment |
| Ending it | Notify the provider; it ends the next business day |
| Ending it early on a discount | Buy out the subsidised equipment and pay a handling fee |
| Terminating only in a shop | Likely an unreasonable restriction where the contract could be signed online |
| Mid-month termination | A full month's fee is still due under Elisa's terms |
| Connection fee, flat | €35 at STV where the building is already wired |
| Connection fee, house | €150 at STV; €199 upward at Elisa; €199–€299 for an Enefit Connect fibre connection |
The installation fee separates a flat from a house more sharply than the monthly price does. In an apartment building with an operator's cable already in the stairwell, connecting a flat is an administrative act: STV charges €35 where technical readiness exists. A detached house needs cable built to it, and the published figures move into the hundreds — €150 at STV, from €199 at Elisa, and €199 to €299 for an Enefit Connect fibre connection, which that company offers in interest-free instalments. Tele2 states that the first technician visit on its fibre packages is free.
Renting: what a tenant can order in someone else's flat
A tenant can hold an internet contract in their own name, and in most Estonian flats that is exactly what happens. What a tenant cannot do is change the building. The two are different questions and they get answered by different people.
A tenant can normally do this alone
No landlord signature needed
- Sign a contract in their own name for a service the flat can already receive
- Order any operator whose cable already reaches the building
- Put a fixed-wireless router on a windowsill, which touches nothing structural
- Rent or buy the router, and take it away at the end of the lease
- End the contract on moving out, effective the next business day
This needs the owner, and often the association
Because it changes the property
- Bringing a new operator's cable into a building that has none
- Any drilling, trunking or fixing of cable inside the flat
- A connection fee that attaches to the dwelling rather than to you
- Anything the apartment association has to admit a contractor for
- Moving an existing connection point, which operators forbid unilaterally
Telia's home internet service terms make the second column explicit on one point: the agreed location of the connection point may not be changed by the customer unilaterally, and doing so is treated as a material breach. That matters more than it sounds, because it means the contract is bound to the address rather than to you. Moving flat is not a change of package; it is a question of whether the new address can be served at all.
Who pays is a lease question rather than an operator question. Under the Law of Obligations Act a tenant owes costs beyond the rent only where the lease says so, and internet is one of the consumption items almost every Estonian lease does allocate to the tenant — see renting for the ancillary-cost clause and what a landlord may and may not load onto it. The clean arrangement is the tenant's own contract in the tenant's own name, because it ends when the tenancy ends. The arrangement that causes arguments is the landlord's contract re-billed as a fixed monthly sum, which survives your departure and cannot be audited.
In a single-operator building, price the wireless box before you sign the lease
A quarter of Estonian addresses reach exactly one cable operator and 23% reach none. In those buildings the landlord's answer to "which providers are there" is one name or none, and a tenant has no way to add a second. The realistic alternative is a fixed-wireless package at €15.99 to €30.99 a month, which needs no cable, no association meeting and no landlord signature — and which you can price on the operator's own page before you commit to the flat.
Mobile internet instead, and when it is genuinely enough
A fixed-wireless box is a normal 4G or 5G connection sold on a home contract, and about 13% of Estonian fixed connections are now one. It exists because of the address arithmetic in the first section rather than because it is cheaper: operators price it against fibre, not below it.
| Fixed wireless package | Published price | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| Tele2 5G, small | €15.99 list price | 40 GB a month in Estonia |
| Tele2 5G, medium | €21.99 list price | 200 GB a month in Estonia |
| Tele2 5G, uncapped | €30.99 list price | No monthly data limit |
| Elisa over the air | Not published | Seven tiers, 15/3 to 500/50 Mbit/s, no data cap in its terms |
| Router | €9.99 a month or €282 to buy at Tele2; €6.99 a month at Telia | A box on a windowsill, no cabling |
The test is a household one rather than a technical one. A capped package is fine for a person who works in documents and email and watches an evening film: 200 GB absorbs that. It is not fine for a household of three streaming in the evening, for anyone who downloads games, or for cloud backup, all of which pass 200 GB in a fortnight — and an uncapped wireless package at €30.99 is dearer than a €34.56 half-gigabit cable line if a cable line exists at all. The three-way decision is therefore usually: fibre if the address has it, an uncapped wireless box if it does not, and a capped one only for a light household or a short stay.
Two technical facts decide the rest. Upload is the weak side of every wireless connection, so a household doing video calls all day feels the difference sooner than one that streams. And the box uses the same masts as your phone, so the operator's mobile network quality is the ceiling: Elisa's median download of 336 Mbit/s, Telia's 241 and Tele2's 112 are measurements of the thing your home connection would be riding on. Anyone treating a phone plan as the substitute rather than a home wireless package should also read the roaming and allowance detail on SIM cards, where unlimited mobile data runs €34.99 to €43.99 a month.
What a new arrival needs to sign up
No Estonian operator publishes a documents-required page for home internet, and none of the three sets of general terms sets a personal identification code as a condition of signing. What the terms do set is identification and creditworthiness, and those are the two things a new arrival actually meets.
Elisa's general terms require identification by an identity document, and allow a deposit, a guarantee or a prepayment where the person does not meet the conditions for signing, has owed the operator before, or has an insufficient credit assessment. Telia's terms allow a surety, a guarantee, a deposit or a prepayment where a credit limit is exceeded or creditworthiness is in its assessment insufficient, at signing or later in the contract. Neither of those is a nationality rule and neither mentions a residence permit. What they describe is a credit decision, and a person who arrived last month has no Estonian credit history to decide on.
In practice that produces three routes. A resident with an isikukood and Estonian bank access signs online with an ID card, Mobile-ID or Smart-ID like anyone else. A person who has arrived but has no personal code yet signs in a shop on a passport, and should expect to be asked for a prepayment or deposit rather than turned away. A short-stay visitor or a person who cannot yet open an Estonian bank account is better served by a prepaid mobile package than by a home contract, because a home contract is address-bound, carries an installation step and, on a campaign, a commitment measured in years.
A home contract binds you to a flat, not just to an operator
The connection point is part of the contract and cannot be moved by the customer alone. If you expect to change address inside a year — which most first-year arrivals do — the fixed-wireless box is the option that travels: it has no installation, no connection fee and no building to negotiate with, and it works at the next address if that address has coverage.
Estonia against the rest of the EU
Estonia is a fibre leader and a very-high-capacity laggard at the same time, and both claims come from EU data rather than from marketing. Fibre passes 77% of households against an EU average of 64%. On very high capacity networks — the broader indicator the Digital Decade targets are written against — Estonia sits at 76.9% of households against an EU average of 78.8% for 2023, below rather than above. The Commission's recommendation to Estonia names that indicator and 5G together.
On price the picture is the opposite way round from the coverage one. The Estonian regulator's published position is that connections up to 500 Mbit/s sit below the European average and that the outlier is gigabit, at €80 to €100 a month for a product fewer than 0.01% of customers buy. The published lists in the table above are consistent with that: a symmetrical 100 Mbit/s line runs €25.41 to €27.90, while a gigabit runs €45.74 to €55.90 and 2.5 Gbit/s is €95.00.
Across the Union the direction of travel is downward. The Commission's retail price study for 2024, published in February 2026, found fixed broadband prices fell about 5% on the year and mobile internet about 14%, with Denmark and Latvia among the cheapest markets for internet-only packages depending on the speed band. The practical reading for a household here is that the gap between Estonia and the cheapest EU markets is real at the top of the speed range and close to nothing in the range most people actually buy.
The mistakes worth avoiding are all versions of comparing the wrong thing. The commonest is comparing a campaign price with a list price, which makes one operator look half the cost of another for the first two years and reverses afterwards. The second is comparing a headline speed without the upload figure: a symmetrical 100/100 line and an asymmetric cable package sold as 100 Mbit/s behave differently on video calls and on backups, and the published lists give both numbers. The third is leaving router rental out, which over a 24-month term can exceed the cost of buying the router. The fourth is treating a national coverage percentage as an answer about your building, when the regulator's own address map answers it exactly. And the fifth is paying for a gigabit in a flat where nothing is capable of using it — the regulator's own figure for how many households want one is under 0.01%.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does home internet cost in Estonia?
On the operators' own published lists, a symmetrical 100 Mbit/s line runs €25.41 at STV and €27.90 at Telia, both including 24% VAT. A gigabit runs €45.74 to €55.90, and Telia's fastest published tier, 2.5 Gbit/s, is €95. Tele2's list prices run from €19.99 for 50/50 Mbit/s to €40.99 for a gigabit, with lower campaign prices for the first 24 months. The regulator's own estimate is that a good 100 Mbit/s line costs around €25 a month, which the published lists bear out.
Why does Elisa not show a price for home internet?
Because its household internet pages are built around an address search: packages and prices appear only after an address is entered and selected from the dropdown. The only Elisa price lists on the open web are its lists of services that are no longer sold. What Elisa does publish is the speed ladder for its over-the-air home packages, seven tiers from 15/3 Mbit/s to 500/50 Mbit/s, and its terms state expressly that the mobile data volume on those packages is not limited. So an Elisa quote has to be obtained for a specific address rather than read off a page.
Can I get internet at any address in Estonia?
Not from any operator. On the regulator's figures, 52% of Estonian addresses can reach more than one cable network, 25% can reach exactly one and 23% have no cable network at all. In that last group the realistic option is a fixed-wireless package using the mobile network, which about 13% of Estonian fixed connections now are. The state maintains an address-by-address availability map called netikaart, built from what the largest operators report, and it is the only way to find out in advance what a particular flat or house can actually buy.
How long is a home internet contract, and what does it cost to leave early?
The subscription contract itself is open-ended and can be ended at any time; the regulator's position is that it ends on the business day after you notify the provider. What binds you is the discount. A campaign price is tied to a 24-month commitment, and Elisa's published contract summary says early termination triggers a buy-out of terminal equipment bought on discounted terms plus a handling fee. Telia's general terms say early termination of a fixed-term contract means compensation, a handling fee or other costs set in the contract. Ending a monthly-billed contract mid-month still costs the full month under Elisa's terms.
What is the installation fee for home internet?
It depends entirely on whether cable already reaches the building. STV publishes €35 to connect a flat in a building that is already wired and €150 for a house. Elisa's house connection starts at €199. An Enefit Connect fibre connection to a household is €199 to €299, payable in interest-free instalments, and that buys the network rather than the service — you then choose an operator to run over it. Tele2 states that the first technician visit on its fibre packages is free.
Can a tenant order internet in a rented flat, or does the landlord have to?
A tenant can hold the contract in their own name, and that is the cleaner arrangement because it ends when the tenancy ends. What a tenant cannot do alone is change the building: bringing a new operator's cable into a block that has none, or any drilling or fixing of cable, needs the owner's agreement and often the apartment association's. Telia's service terms also state that the agreed location of the connection point may not be changed by the customer unilaterally, which means the contract is bound to the address. Who pays is a lease question: under the Law of Obligations Act a tenant owes costs beyond the rent only where the lease says so.
Do I need an isikukood to get home internet?
No operator's general terms set a personal identification code as a condition of signing. What they do set is identification and a credit assessment. Elisa's terms require identification by an identity document and allow a deposit, a guarantee or a prepayment where the person does not meet the conditions for signing, has owed the operator before, or has an insufficient credit assessment. Telia's terms allow a surety, guarantee, deposit or prepayment where creditworthiness is in its assessment insufficient. So a newly arrived foreigner usually meets a request for a deposit rather than a refusal. A personal code still matters in practice, because it is what lets you sign online with an ID card, Mobile-ID or Smart-ID instead of going to a shop.
Is 5G home internet good enough to replace fibre?
For a light household, often; for a heavy one, rarely, and the limit is usually the data allowance rather than the speed. Tele2 publishes three fixed-wireless packages: €15.99 for 40 GB a month, €21.99 for 200 GB and €30.99 uncapped, all at list price. Elisa's over-the-air packages run from 15/3 to 500/50 Mbit/s with no data cap stated in its terms but no published price. An uncapped wireless package at €30.99 costs more than a €34.56 half-gigabit cable line, so wireless wins on availability rather than on price. Upload is the weak side, so a household on video calls all day notices sooner than one that streams.
Which operators actually exist in Estonia besides the big three?
250 general communications undertakings were on the register at the end of 2024, but three operators — Telia, Elisa and STV — between them served about 92% of fixed-broadband end users. STV is a city cable and fibre company and the third-largest fixed operator in the country, with the fullest open price list of any of them. Infonet sells over the same network and publishes an identical price ladder, so treating the two as competing offers is a mistake. Enefit Connect is a wholesale fibre network rather than a retail seller: it has built past roughly 80,000 households and the household chooses an operator afterwards.
Is internet in Estonia expensive compared with the rest of the EU?
Below average in the range most people buy, above it at the top. The Estonian regulator's published position is that about 75% of users buy packages up to 100 Mbit/s at around €25 a month, that everything up to 500 Mbit/s sits below the European average, and that gigabit at €80–€100 is dear because fewer than 0.01% of customers want it. On coverage Estonia is ahead on fibre at 77% against an EU average of 64%, and behind on very high capacity networks at 76.9% against 78.8%. Across the Union, fixed prices fell about 5% in 2024.
Should I rent the router or buy one?
Do the multiplication before deciding. Telia charges €4.13 a month for its fibre and copper routers and €6.99 for the 5G box; STV charges €5.08 a month for a Wi-Fi 6 router; Tele2 rents its 5G router at €9.99 a month or sells it for €282. Rented across the 24 months of a contract, that rental exceeds the purchase price of the same device. Renting still makes sense where the operator's box is required for the service to work at all, or where you expect to move address inside the term.
What happens to my internet contract when I move house?
It does not simply travel with you. The connection point is part of the contract and Telia's service terms forbid the customer changing its location unilaterally, treating that as a material breach. Practically, moving means asking whether the new address can be served at all — which is the address-map question again — and then either transferring the service, ending the contract, or starting a new one. If the discount you are on carries a fixed-term commitment, ending it early triggers the equipment buy-out and handling fee described in the contract. A fixed-wireless box is the option that moves cleanly, because it has no installation and no connection fee tied to the dwelling.
Check what your address can actually buy
Two operators publish a full price list and one publishes none, but all three decide what you can have from the address. Read the published lists first, then check the building.
