Customer Reviews for Internet Service Providers in Texas
Customer Reviews
A Dallas, TX Customer
Frontier Fiber
August 25, 2025 Very Reliable, No outages since they took over from Verizon
A Dallas, TX Customer
AT&T DSL
May 07, 2023 I have had the same internet provider, AT&T for four years at my current residence, and have not had any issues so far. The initial installation was quick and the technician was a very nice guy. The price has been acceptable for all these years so I haven't really looked to switch providers as AT&T is providing what I am paying for. If I were to move and AT&T was an option for an internet provider I would consider continuing service with them.
A Dallas, TX Customer
Spectrum Cable
April 19, 2023 The pricing is generally fair, compared to competitors. I am required to have this service by an apartment building, so I would not necessarily choose them if I had the option. They have many outages or times when service is down and has to be restarted. They do not offer compensation or anything when there are outages. Overall, the service and price is fine. There is room for improvement.

AT&T DSL
February 18, 2023 My speed is very consistent. I can stream many devices at once with no real slow down. I have no outages and all. It is a very dependable service and I can always count on it. Working from home, this is very important.
A Dallas, TX Customer
AT&T Fiber
February 14, 2023 My internet service provider is also my cell phone provider. ATT seems a bit on the lower end because their individual stores are trying to upsell everything when you go in to buy their products/services. The speed of the internet itself is very good. I get around 300-330 mbps, which is plenty for a gamer. It costs around $30 +$50 (my apartment charges this automatically)
