Frequently asked questions

When you use your electronic tablet to surf the Web, you are using the data network. 

The following are a few examples of the amount of data by bandwidth sent and received in reference to different types of activities possible with the Internet on your tablet service:

 

Activity Amount of data
sent or received* 
Viewing a Twitter page 0.17 MB
Watching a video on YouTube 1 MB/min
Downloading an application
(approx.) 		 1 MB 
Online gaming session 30 MB/h
Listening to a streaming song
(4 min)		 4 MB

* These are approximate values that may vary according to the type of activity.
Yes. You can use Internet on your tablet on the Videotron partner network in Canada and the US. Call Customer Service to activate it. You’ll be charged for your data usage. Note, however, that roaming charges apply when you use the Internet outside the Videotron network. Abroad, you can use a Wi-Fi connection.
The speed of the Internet on your tablet service is comparable to that of a high-speed connection on your computer (faster surfing and downloading).
Contact Videotron’s Technical Support. One of our representatives will be happy to help you.

If you’re using your tablet to access the Internet outside of the area covered by the Videotron network, it is possible that the speed is slower due to the lack of availability of the Videotron mobile network connection on our partner network.

However, if you are within the Videotron network’s coverage area and your connection is unusually slow, contact Videotron’s Technical Support
