Reno Residential Internet Coverage

Reno, the biggest tourist city in Nevada after Las Vegas, has a few internet service providers that offer the city DSL, cable, satellite, and fiber.

Fiber is still building out in Reno through cable provider AT&T, so high-speed fiber may soon become widely available throughout the city. The DSL network of AT&T reaches considerably further, covering almost 100% of Reno. The map reaches as far north as North Valleys, with extending to the northwest and southwest communities of Reno. In addition, South Reno and East Reno are also served by AT&T DSL. The central tourist areas of Reno are served by AT&T, giving tourists and locals reliable coverage.

A select few neighborhoods are covered by RTI, a DSL provider in the Reno area. RTI currently offers DSL service to a small part of the North Valleys neighborhood.

Last, Charter is currently offering cable to the entirety of Reno, and is up there with AT&T as the two largest providers.

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.
