Understanding speeds and technologies
Use this guide to interpret the provider results above. Speeds are in Mbps (megabits per second); higher numbers mean faster internet.
Speeds
- Download
- How fast you receive data—streaming, browsing, and downloading files. Most everyday use relies on download speed.
- Upload
- How fast you send data—video calls, cloud backups, and posting content. Symmetric plans (equal upload and download) are common with fiber.
Technologies
- Fiber
- Light through glass cables. Typically the fastest option with symmetric speeds and low latency. Often best for work-from-home and gaming.
- Cable
- Coaxial cable (same lines as cable TV). Widely available with strong download speeds; upload is usually lower than fiber.
- DSL
- Uses existing phone lines. Generally slower than fiber or cable but can reach areas where other options aren't available.
- Fixed Wireless
- Radio signal from a nearby tower to an antenna on your home. Fills gaps in rural and suburban areas; can include 4G/5G home internet.
- Satellite
- Signal from orbit. Available almost everywhere; newer low-earth-orbit options (e.g. Starlink) offer lower latency than traditional satellite.
Why we created the internet provider lookup tool
Internet rates and pricing are difficult to keep accurate by address. Introductory offers, bundles, plan tiers, and provider-specific promos change constantly. What one neighbor pays can differ from another on the same street. We focus on availability instead—which providers report service at your address and what technologies and speeds they offer. Availability data comes from the FCC Broadband Data Collection. Check each provider's site for current plans and pricing.
Tips to find internet that works for you
- Use the results as a starting point—contact providers directly to confirm serviceability and current offers at your exact address.
- Fiber often offers the best speeds and symmetry; cable is widely available; DSL and fixed wireless can fill gaps where fiber and cable don't reach.
- Compare advertised speeds, but ask about typical speeds, data caps, and contract terms before signing up.
- If no providers appear, try a nearby address or ZIP code—coverage data may not include every location yet.
Data source
Provider availability comes from the FCC Broadband Data Collection, where ISPs report where they offer service. The FCC updates the National Broadband Map semi-annually (typically May and November) with data as of the prior June and December. Check the FCC site for the current data version.
