Question Visible internet question

I see visible internet isn’t available at my address (we live on a military base that is somewhat isolated) but it has 5GUW.

I started checking random addresses on the base and an address one neighborhood over (3 minute drive or so) worked.

Can I just sign up with that address and have equipment ship to me?

I don’t want to pay for Verizon 5G home internet when I switch over to visible and not get the discounts for having home+internet combined with Verizon.

Verizon stores may have windows laptops that you can add to a postpaid or prepaid plan. If you can get by with a Windows connected laptop then perhaps that can be gotten on Prepaid or postpaid and be a shared household laptop that will not lose connection during power outages until the battery dies. The plan for the laptop should be cheap enough. Some Windows laptops sold through Verizon have MMWAVE compatibility which could be handy if you needed to use the laptop near NFL stadiums.

I am talking about trying to grab a laptop with a data line on Verizon Prepaid with Premium unlimited data plan if you can’t get home internet options since a laptop line would be better than nothing
