AT&T services fiber optics internet near Egan, advertising speeds up to 1 Gbps with their Uverse fiber optics. Pathway Com-Tel services residents closer to Happy Hill, with advertised speeds up to 30 Mbps.

The service is awful, when you have any issues they ask you to do the basics that most people already do. And if things are "working on they're end" then they will not send a tech out to make sure everything is running with the equipment. If they see that you are not using one of the company routers they will say you're router is old and to switch to they're router as it works better. Overall the speeds are dreadful even if you get the fastest package you'll only see about 5MB down and 763KP upload

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.
