Overview of internet satisfaction and availability in Nevada
Nevada’s two largest metropolitan areas each have access to cable and fiber internet providers. Las Vegas is covered by Cox and CenturyLink, while Reno has Spectrum and AT&T. We recommend going with fiber internet (CenturyLink & AT&T) if you can, but all of these ISPs offer gigabit speeds over reliable broadband connections.
Nevadans also have excellent fixed-wireless internet options from T-Mobile and Verizon. Fixed-wireless internet is completely wireless, using the same technology that powers your phone’s internet connection.
