To subscribe to an Internet plan with Free, start by checking whether your address is eligible for fibre, ADSL or the Freebox 5G. This step is essential in France, as internet availability and speeds vary widely depending on your building and location. Our eligibility test only takes a few minutes and lets you instantly see which Freebox offers you can actually order.

Once your eligibility is confirmed, you can select the Freebox that matches your needs and subscribe online. The process is simple and guided, which helps a lot if you're not familiar with French telecom providers. Free then delivers the equipment to your home and, if you choose fibre, arranges an installation appointment with a technician. For expats, this clear and predictable process makes getting internet set up in France far easier, even when everything else still feels new.
