Internet providers in Phoenix, AZ

Quantum is the best internet provider in Phoenix, delivering both the fastest best and the best value plans over a highly reliable fiber-optic network. Quantum internet plans reach speeds up to 8,000Mbps, which is far beyond the needs of even the most demanding internet customers. Fortunately, Quantum’s plans are a good deal across the board, starting with 500Mbps speeds for just $50 per month.

Cox is the cheapest major internet provider in Phoenix. Its Go Faster plan starts at $40 per month, providing a decent 250Mbps. Also, if you’re eligible for certain government assistance programs, you can apply for Cox’s low-income internet plans and get internet as cheap as $9.95 per month.

Quantum Fiber is the fastest provider in the Phoenix area with plans reaching 8Gbps download speeds. While truly impressive, 8Gbps is dramatically beyond the needs of the average customer. If your heart’s set on really fast internet, a gigabit (1,000Mbps) connection from Quantum Fiber can get you there for much less per month, starting at $75 per month.

T-Mobile has the widest coverage area in Phoenix. Fixed-wireless services like T-Mobile use cell towers to deliver internet signal to your home, allowing for enormous coverage areas.

Cox and Quantum coverage areas are a close second to T-Mobile; both are widely available throughout the Phoenix area.

The City of Phoenix provides free Wi-Fi at nearly 50 public locations, including libraries, senior centers, and recreation centers. You can find the nearest free Phoenix Wi-Fi using the interaction map on the City of Phoenix website as well as instructions on how to connect your device. Another approach is to choose an internet provider, like Cox, that includes Wi-Fi hotspot access with its internet plans.

A good internet connection is one that you hardly notice as it works in the background to keep all your online activities running smoothly. If you regularly experience interruptions in your streaming, browsing, and downloading, chances are your internet plan isn’t adequate.
