Freebox Pop S: France’s First Wi-Fi 7 Offer Redefines Home Connectivity

Free has launched the Freebox Pop S, a 100% internet offer without TV, positioning itself as a leader in the French market with its inclusion of Wi-Fi 7 technology. This move makes Free the first operator in France to integrate Wi-Fi 7 across a broad range of its fixed-line offerings.

High-Speed Connectivity at an Affordable Price

The Freebox Pop S is designed for users seeking a simple yet powerful internet experience. It offers fiber speeds of up to 5 Gbit/s shared download (up to 2.5 Gbps on 1 Ethernet port, 1 Gbps on 2 Ethernet ports and 0.5 Gbps via Wi-Fi) and up to 900 Mbit/s upload speeds [1]. Available at a price of €24.99 per month, the offer is web exclusive and comes without a long-term commitment [2].

Wi-Fi 7 and Enhanced Home Coverage

A key feature of the Freebox Pop S is its support for Wi-Fi 7, the latest generation of wireless technology. A Wi-Fi 7 repeater is also available upon request, ensuring stable signal strength throughout the home [2]. This inclusion sets the Freebox Pop S apart as the only offer on the market to provide a repeater at this price point.

Additional Benefits and Mobile Options

Subscribers to the Freebox Pop S benefit from Free’s fiber network performance. Installation is provided free of charge by Free technicians. Freebox Pop S subscribers can access the Free 5G Plan with unlimited 5G data at a reduced rate, with options for up to four mobile lines at €9.99/month for one year, then €15.99/month without commitment [2].

Free’s Commitment to Cutting-Edge Connectivity

According to Nicolas Thomas, General Director of Free, the Freebox Pop S continues the company’s tradition of offering advanced connectivity at competitive prices. Free’s fiber network currently covers nearly 90% of the French population [2]. The launch of Wi-Fi 7 in January 2024 paved the way for this wider integration across fixed-line offers.

Freebox Pop Fibre Plans

Free offers a variety of Freebox plans, including the Freebox Pop Fibre, which features no contract, Wi-Fi 7, a Wi-Fi repeater, and speeds of up to 5 Gbit/s download and 900 Mbit/s upload [3].
