Customer Reviews for Internet Service Providers in Texas

Metronet Fiber
June 23, 2025 I love Vexus Fiber, despite it being somewhat expensive for my budget. They are newer to the area as we just recently had fiber optic cables installed all throughout our town. Our internet is faster that we've ever had before and it has enabled me to do a lot more online work. The only problem we've had at my house was that a gopher chewed through one of the underground cables, but a service technician came and fixed it the next day. They have a referral program so we can earn up to $600 credit per year by referring at least one person each month. The credit is taken off of our monthly payment and I appreciate that very much. I love our fiber optic internet because things download and load nearly immeadiately and it feels like we're finally joining the modern world.

Rise Broadband Fixed Wireless
June 13, 2025 I live in an area bereft of internet options. Rise Broadband has been a decent provider far better than the satellite internet I had before. That said, Rise has frequent service interruptions. One time it was out for 5 days allegedly waiting for a part. I work from home and I lose connection at least 3x per week some lasting hours sometimes 10-20 minutes. I keep hoping we get fiber out here soon
