Viasat Satellite Internet in New Jersey

Viasat provides satellite internet service across New Jersey using its advanced ViaSat-2 and ViaSat-3 satellite constellation. Unlike cable or fiber providers that require physical infrastructure running to each home, Viasat beams internet directly from orbit to a small dish installed on your roof. This makes it available virtually everywhere in New Jersey, from the Atlantic coastline, Pine Barrens wilderness, and the Appalachian ridges in the northwest. Despite being the most densely populated state, New Jersey's Pine Barrens and northwestern mountains have broadband gaps, and Viasat fills that critical gap by delivering broadband speeds without needing a single mile of cable or fiber.

Viasat has invested heavily in its next-generation satellite fleet, with the ViaSat-3 constellation delivering significantly more capacity than previous generations. For New Jersey residents, this means faster speeds and more consistent performance, particularly with the new Unleashed plan lineup. These contract-free plans offer unlimited data, a major shift from Viasat's earlier offerings that had priority data thresholds. New Jersey's Pine Barrens, a 1.1-million-acre preserve, creates a surprisingly rural zone in the heart of the nation's most urbanized state, which makes Viasat's expanding capacity especially impactful here.

Most of New Jersey has strong cable and fiber options, but the Pine Barrens and rural northwest corners have gaps that satellite can fill. With speeds up to 300 Mbps on the Unleashed 300+ plan and no data caps to worry about, Viasat has evolved from a last-resort option into a genuinely competitive broadband choice for rural New Jersey households. The company's shift toward unlimited data and faster speeds reflects growing demand from remote workers, telehealth patients, and streaming households in the Pine Barrens of Burlington and Ocean counties, rural Sussex and Warren counties, and parts of Salem County.
