Chattanooga Residential Internet Coverage

Located along the southern border of Tennessee, the city of Chattannooga has a population of almost 200,000 people, a major airport, and a growing tourism industry.

Through Centurylink Prism, certain parts of eastern Chattanooga enjoy the high speeds of fiber internet. The service area is relatively small, covering Harrison and Hamilville. The CenturyLink DSL network is slightly larger, reaching as far south as Bonny Oaks Drive.

Both fiber internet and DSL are provided by AT&T. Combined, these networks reach every part of Chattanooga, from Northwoods and Oak Hill North to Clifton Hills and Saint Elmo in the south.

Similarly, Xfinity brings high-speed cable coverage to all of Chattanooga, as does EPB. Charter has a slightly smaller network, running west of Tennessee River and east of the Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport. There is little coverage in the central part of Chattanooga through Charter, although there is some service along the southern Tennessee border.

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.
