5 Best Internet Services Providers in Abu Dhabi (2026)

Independently ranked by our review of ratings, reviews and reputation · How we chose

By Fenris Morrow, Expert in Professional Services · ✓ Data verified August 2026 · 8 min read

In Abu Dhabi, getting online usually means picking between two national carriers, but a slower connection or a dead spot in a villa often gets solved by a local networking specialist instead. The internet services providers in Abu Dhabi below range from du and e& (formerly Etisalat), the city's two big carriers, down to small WiFi and networking shops, and the review data shows a real gap: some of the smaller specialists post a perfect 5.0 while the national carriers sit closer to 4.0.

Short answer: For a genuine internet or WiFi connection, du and e& are Abu Dhabi's two national providers, though both carry a 4.0 average from reviewers on speed and store service. For network setup, mesh WiFi and villa cabling work, WiFi - EXPERTS (5.0 stars, 181 reviews) and RISTEL RISOMM IT Company (5.0, 345 reviews) rank highest of the group.

Broadband Computer Trading, Abu Dhabi

4.9671 Google reviews

Broadband Computer Trading is a computer store and wholesaler on Electra Street selling PC parts, components and general computer hardware, with reviewers describing staff who help with builds and basic setup. It is not an internet service provider in the connectivity sense but a hardware retailer that reviewers turn to for PC components and tech advice.

What people praise

  • Staff repeatedly praised for knowledgeable, unhurried guidance on parts
  • Good prices called out across nearly every review
  • Helps with basic setup after a purchase, not just the sale
  • Wide selection for both new builds and upgrades

Worth knowing

  • Not an internet or WiFi service provider despite its name; it's a hardware store

Our take: Its name suggests connectivity services, but the reviews describe a computer parts retailer, not an ISP or network installer. Useful if you need PC hardware, less useful if you need your home internet set up.

Our take: As a national provider's plans go, it holds up, but this specific branch draws a wider mix of reviews than the smaller specialists on this page, including real frustration over wait times. Worth calling ahead or booking rather than walking in during peak hours.

Watch: 5 Best Internet Services Providers in Abu Dhabi (2026)

How we rank these providers

Rating is the business’s live Google star average. Review volume shows how many customers have rated them, compared against other providers and installers in Abu Dhabi. Confidence weighs the rating against that volume, so a 5.0 from a couple hundred reviews carries a different weight than a 4.0 from nearly a thousand. Recency reflects how recently people are still leaving reviews. No business can pay to change these numbers.

How much does internet or WiFi setup cost in Abu Dhabi? (2026)

National provider plans from du and e& are typically sold as fixed monthly packages bundling internet speed with TV and mobile add-ons, while local networking specialists usually charge per job for installation, cabling or mesh setup. None of the businesses on this page have published pricing that we can verify directly, so confirm current plan pricing with du or e& directly, and get a written quote from any networking installer before work begins.

Serving all of Abu Dhabi

These providers and installers cover Electra Street, Al Zahiyah, Al Danah and Wahda Mall, with du and e& also serving the wider Abu Dhabi emirate through their national networks. Searching for an internet provider near me? Every listing below shows a live phone number and address so you can reach the closest option directly.

What to ask before signing up or booking an installer

  • What internet speeds are actually available at my specific building or villa?
  • Is there a contract term, and what are the early termination costs?
  • For network installers, is the visit a flat fee or does it scale with the work found on-site?
  • Do you handle both the provider sign-up and the in-home WiFi setup?
  • Is there a warranty or follow-up visit included if the issue returns?
  • How long does installation or setup typically take from booking to completion?

Frequently asked questions

How did you choose these providers and installers?

We started from internet and networking businesses in Abu Dhabi with a public Google presence, then ranked by rating, review volume, consistency and recency. See How we rank these providers above.

Are these rankings paid?

No. Rankings come from the public Google data in the scorecard. A business can pay to be a Featured Partner, which adds a badge and top placement, but that never changes another business’s score or position on the underlying data.

How often is this updated?

The data carries a verified date (August 2026 on this page). We refresh listings periodically so ratings and review counts stay current.

Are du and e& the only internet providers in Abu Dhabi?

Yes, du and e& (formerly Etisalat) are the UAE’s two licensed telecommunications providers for home internet. The other businesses on this page are networking specialists who install and troubleshoot WiFi and cabling rather than sell the underlying connection.

Why is my WiFi slow even though I have a good internet plan?

Reviewers on this page describe cases where the issue was in-home cabling, router placement or a need for a mesh system rather than the provider’s plan itself. A networking specialist like WiFi - EXPERTS or RISTEL can diagnose whether the problem is the connection or the in-home setup.

The bottom line

For the actual internet connection, du and e& are Abu Dhabi’s only two options, so compare their current plans directly. If the real problem is weak WiFi or patchy coverage in your home, WiFi - EXPERTS and RISTEL are the two specialists reviewers trust most to actually fix it.
