Springfield Residential Internet Coverage

Springfield is an essential part of the business and retail community of Illinois, which is just one reason that so many internet service providers have large networks here.

Both DSL and fiber internet are available through AT&T, with DSL available almost everywhere in Springfield and fiber gaining a foothold in the city's most populous areas.

The network of Frontier Communications is limited to the outskirts of Springfield, leaving the center of the city without Frontier coverage. Woodside, Toronto, Arlington Heights, and Bradfordton fall within this provider's service map.

Xfinity is one of the most widespread cable providers in Springfield, thanks to its network that covers nearly all of the city.

Mediacom provides internet service to select neighborhoods throughout Springfield. In the east, covered neighborhoods include Taylor Avenue, Mayden, Arlington Heights, and Dirksen Parkway. Curran, located in the southwest corner of Springfield, also enjoys service through Mediacom, as does Woodside in the southeast.

Cable provides internet speeds faster than DSL through the same cables used for cable TV.

There is no good customer service representative to get you answers to your problems and you have to wait on hold for them to get you most of the time wrong answers. Be better off with google on your own and figuring it out yourself

Absolutely the worst customer service of any internet provider or telecom company I have ever experienced. We tried to move and cancel our internet and they disconnected it weeks early, then did not disconnect when we actually moved, then tried to charge us for internet after we moved, and now they are trying to charge us $120 for a piece of equipment they said was free. If you try to contact customer support and are lucky enough to eventually talk to a human they will straight up lie to you and tell you the problem is fixed when it isn’t.

Customer service is terrible. Accounts confused. Trying for more than a year to change owner to my name bc husband was ill then died. They shut off service intermittently. Spend over 5 times of 45 min each in “chat”. Went to store 4 times. Remains unresolved

It's very expensive and the price changes a price month.i feel they are robbing me and i could find a better provider in our area. Wish they would keep the price the same and the service would not go out during storms

Xfinity was great, I loved the speed and they always seemed to be increasing the speed free of charge. The price is very expensive.
