SRT Fiber
November 13, 2025 By far the best ISP I have ever used. I have used both Xfinity and Verizon in the past and both struggled with random outages/maintenance that took my internet offline for 'x' amount of hours. On the other hand at SRT, I have experienced very few outages, perhaps one this year so far (June 2025). The pricing at SRT is also the around the same that I paid at previous ISPs but my speeds are significantly higher/faster.

DRN Fiber
July 31, 2025 DRN has amazing internet service. It is high speed fiber optic internet. It is reasonablely priced, and worth every cent. Having the service provider be local is a major benefit also. If there were to be any issues, I can call them, and if it can not be resolved over the phone, then they send a person to repair it that same day. Very rarely, issues won't be resolved until the next day. If anyone would ask, I would highly recommend using this provider.

Polar Communications Fiber
April 25, 2025 I really like that they give a proper notice when they are going to be doing maintenance. Our old provider would never give notice then the internet would be randomly out for long periods of time. My current provider is very prompt when there are problems and gets them fixed quickly.

WRT Fiber
April 12, 2025 WRT has been the best internet provider experience we’ve ever had. Not only is it affordable & fast, but the customer service is top tier. The most incredible perk are twice yearly co-op cash back checks. They range from $50-$800 twice a year which in the end pays for your service!
