Des Moines Residential Internet Coverage

One of the largest cities in the Midwest, Des Moines is a huge gathering hub for the businesses, residents, and visitors of Iowa. Consistent internet is a key priority for many of the people who live and work in this bustling metropolis. Cable, fiber, DSL, and satellite options are available.

Centurylink Prism has come out as a major fiber internet provider throughout the Midwest. Several key parts of Des Moines fall within their service area, including most areas north of the McKinley School Neighborhood. Some southern areas are covered, including Bloomfield-Allen and Jordan Park. Service stops short of several centrally located neighborhoods, including East Village and Capitol Park.

DSL provider CenturyLink has a consistent coverage area that reaches all of Des Moines, spreading into bordering cities and suburbs.

Through Windstream, residents on the outer fringes of Des Moines access high-speed internet. Some of the neighborhoods within this service area are the southmost point of Greater South Side, Union Park, Fairmont Park, and Douglas Acres.

Mediacom_s service map mirrors that of Centurylink, spanning northern neighborhoods like Meredith and Highland Park. The service map extends beyond southern neighborhoods like Southwestern Hills, South Park, and Magnolia Hills. From west to east, service stretches from Waterbury and Waveland Woods to Gray_s Woods and Laurel Hill.
