By the InternetService.ai editorial team

Verizon's availability page separates Fios metros from 5G Home locations. Checked September 23, 2026, Verizon's public page returned 200. It says 5G Home Internet is currently available in more locations including Baltimore. That sentence is a more-locations-including list, not a complete roster. Baltimore is the only Maryland name this guide uses from that list. Baltimore is also a Fios metro. Bethesda, Columbia and Germantown are Maryland Fios metros, and they are not on this 5G including-list. This guide does not add them as 5G Home cities. The address check has to name the product. A city on either list is not service at every address.

Baltimore is the Maryland 5G Home name

The 5G Home name this guide uses is Baltimore. It comes from the sentence that 5G Home Internet is currently available in more locations including Baltimore. A name on that including-list means Verizon is showing the place under 5G Home. It does not mean every address in Baltimore can order, and it does not complete a roster.

This guide does not add other Maryland cities to the 5G Home including-list. Baltimore is the Maryland name on that list.

Baltimore is also a Fios metro

The Fios section of the same page names Maryland metros Baltimore, Bethesda, Columbia and Germantown. Baltimore is on both lists: the Fios metro list and the 5G Home more-locations-including list. Because Baltimore sits on both lists, a Baltimore address check has to name the product.

Bethesda, Columbia and Germantown are on the Fios metro list. They are not on this 5G Home including-list. This guide does not add them as 5G Home cities. A Fios metro name and a 5G Home including-list name are different publication facts.

The address check has to name the product

The 5G Home FAQ says wireless home internet is not Fios. In Baltimore, the checker has to say which product came back. Bethesda, Columbia and Germantown remain Fios names in this guide, and a 5G Home offer is a different product from those Fios metros.

New LTE Home sign-ups are closed. Frontier's 31-state network is not Fios. Do not use that wider fiber description to relabel Baltimore, Bethesda, Columbia or Germantown.

Use Baltimore as the Maryland 5G Home including-list name, and also as a Fios metro.
Keep Bethesda, Columbia and Germantown on the Fios list. Do not add them as 5G Home cities.
Check the full address and unit, and record whether the result says Fios or 5G Home.
Do not describe Frontier's 31-state network as Fios. New LTE Home sign-ups are closed.

A Maryland note that keeps the two lists apart

Cite Baltimore as a 5G Home more-locations-including name and as a Fios metro. Cite Bethesda, Columbia and Germantown as Fios metros that are not on this 5G including-list. State that the address check has to name the product.

Illustration only: Baltimore remains on both lists, and one Baltimore address is offered only Fios. The including-list can still name Baltimore. That address's product is the one the checker named. Bethesda stays a Fios metro in this note, and a ZIP code is not an installation.
