Internet in Arlington

Moving towns or switching internet providers can be confusing and stressful. Comparing internet providers against the averages in the Arlington area can help you choose the right internet and get back to your life.

Arlington Residential Internet Coverage

Depending on where you live in Arlington, you may have access to high-speed cable, DSL, fiber, or satellite internet.

Fiber internet, one of the fastest options available, is provided by Frontier. As Frontier builds out their fiber network, the service area may grow. Currently, it is limited to a small part of North Arlington.

AT&T is another primary fiber internet provider in Arlington, although this company also brings DSL to the entire city of Arlington. Service stretches to the neighborhoods of West and Southwest, running to the eastern limits of the city.

Coverage is similar through Time Warner Cable, although part of West falls outside of this company's service area.

Charter, another key cable provider in Arlington, has a slightly smaller service area. Very little of central Arlington is covered, so the neighborhoods of Central and Dalworthington Gardens do not have Charter service. Coverage picks up just before Grand Prairie Municipal Airport in the east and runs eastward. In the west, service starts at Mattock Road.

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.
