I am supposed to have the fastest internet they provide. It never gets anywhere near 1000Mbps. Usually sits around 250Mbps. Sometimes a lot less, especially if I connect to a vpn for work. My job requires downloading very large files and so this is prohibitive for me.

Internet was always spotty and it made it a very difficult process when my roommate moved out. They make it extremely difficult to transfer accounts. I needed to drop off the hardware in the middle of my workday vs them being able to transfer to the new account and service to existing hardware. Bad system! Good customer support, however.

I can't believe I'm writing a positive review about an internet service provider, yet, here we are. Two weeks ago, I took the plunge and had AT&T's gigabit fiber internet installed, and the entire experience has been a ten out of ten experience. Ordering was dead simple, and I was able to do it all online. The technician who performed the installation was meticulous and made sure every component worked perfectly. And to my surprise, AT&T sent out a second customer service representative to make sure I was happy with the service. Both the technician and the CSR rep were friendly and knowledgeable. My internet speeds are insanely fast and, more importantly, stable. I used to have Spectrum, and the internet would go out about twice an hour for a few seconds at a time. AT&T's fiber internet hasn't gone out once in the last few weeks. Pricing is reasonable. I'm getting AT&T 1Gbps internet for about $80 a month compared to Spectrums 300Mbps for $85 a month. Something positive is happening over at AT&T because I've never liked any internet service provider before. Until now. Keep up the great work, and thanks!

Methodology

HighSpeedInternet.com compares internet providers within cities and metro areas to give customers the most relevant insights into their internet options. When comparing providers, we consider the following:

  • Provider coverage areas 
  • Advertised speeds 
  • Real-world speeds (speed test data) 
  • Customer feedback
  • Other relevant localized data

We source localized coverage data displayed on our coverage maps from the FCC coverage database, which is updated every six months. For the most current summary of providers in your area, we recommend you use our zip code search tool, which offers the most recent coverage data straight from internet service providers (ISPs).

Our city overviews compare advertised provider speeds. We may also include real-world speed data gathered from millions of annual speed test results. To process our speed test data, we first filter out outliers and providers with low test counts. We then calculate speed averages with every ISP subject to the same parameters.

We gather ISP customer feedback data from our comprehensive annual surveys and direct customer feedback submitted to HighSpeedInternet.com. Unless stated otherwise, average ratings are calculated nationally.
