Gatineau coverage areas
Ebox provides cable internet across Gatineau, the fourth-largest city in Quebec by population. Coverage extends through the merged municipalities that make up modern Gatineau:
Most J8 and J9 postal codes are covered. Some rural areas of the Outaouais outside Gatineau city limits may have limited or no coverage — verify at ebox.ca with your postal code before signup.

Working in Ottawa, living in Gatineau
Gatineau has a unique demographic profile: a large share of residents are federal government employees who work across the river in Ottawa. This cross-river lifestyle means home internet usage peaks during evenings and weekends when residents return home — and the no-contract model is especially practical for federal workers on term appointments who may relocate.
Ebox's mid-tier plan (~$55/month for 300-500 Mbps) handles typical federal-worker household usage well — video calls with distant family, streaming, occasional gaming, and the inevitable hybrid work-from-home days. The month-to-month structure means no cancellation fee if you're transferred or move.
If you live in Ottawa rather than Gatineau, the same code OR181 works in Ontario. See our Ebox Promo Code Ontario page for details.
