Pros

Adequate speed for most users
Low cost
Contract not required

Cons

Limited fiber-optic availability
Some customer service concerns

FiOS from Frontier is a fiber-optic network that provides faster speeds than DSL and cable but still maintains affordability. While Frontier’s speeds are a bit slower than other comparable fiber-optic services, the company provides promotional offers and packages that make the lower tiers a tremendous value. Below-average customer service ratings are likely a result of frustration over confusing pricing models and a difficult transition in some areas where Frontier recently acquired AT &T customers.

Pros

Fast, reliable speeds
Affordable fiber optic
Attractive promotional offers

Cons

Confusing billing & pricing
Slower speeds than other fiber-optic networks

HughesNet offers some of the highest speeds among satellite internet providers. While their broad availability makes them an attractive choice for rural areas, HughesNet does struggle with the data caps and latency issues that are typical of satellite technology. They also receive lower marks in customer satisfaction associated with a lack of competitive pricing and connectivity.

Pros

Wide areas of availability
Fast speeds for satellite

Customer Reviews of Internet Providers in Portland

We currently have centurylink in our household. We have had to call them a few times regarding the service, we received a new modem but the service is still the same. The only option we get is to upgrade to a faster speed = more money and we'd need a new modem = more money.

Not impressed. Comcast (currently) has the monopoly in my area. They are constantly pulling shady things like sending me modems even though I have one and then charging me for their mistake. Can't wait for fiber to come my way or to see Comcast change their business practices!

I am pretty livid with Comcast after having them for several years. Everywhere I've lived, I've had to put too much effort into getting anyone to come out and look at what's wrong with my service, which has never been reliable. It fluctuates all the time, and I'd rather go with another company, but the options are very limited in my area. If I had the choice, I'd definitely switch providers.

Most of the time our Internet runs well, speed is good. The last few weeks we have had some slowing and occasional disconnects. Service is fairly good and quick to handle issues.

I like the fast internet connection. The downloads on my mobile are lighting fast and I never have any difficulty with using Skype. Overall they are a great company and are always willing to have tech support available to come to my home if need be.
