Inconsistent speed, highest cost, and very poor service. I am currently on my 5th day of no service. Power pole was knocked down causing an outage. I was notified by Spectrum via text of the outage and notified via text 24 hours later that service had been restored. That was a lie. Submitted an outage report and within 24 hours, received a text stating service had been restored, another lie. The technicians must have only verified that the cable was connected to the splitter on the power pole because the house end of the cable was laying on the ground in the front yard. Submitted another outage report and was told a technician would be out on my 8th day without service. Every time I submitted a report I was moved to the back of the line. Do not use Spectrum unless it is your only choice for high speed service. They have a monopoly in my area and provide horrible customer service because they can...

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.
