AT&T Fiber

4 of 5 stars May 28, 2026

I believe our current internet provider was our only option when we purchased our home. We are in an area that is considered rural, and all utilities are run underground. I don't believe we've had any issues since moving in, and I think we even get a bit of a discount on our phone plan, since it is also with AT&T. The front of our house might be a little spotty occasionally when it comes to internet speeds, but my husband said he is going to run ethernet to that room and fix the issue.

Unfortunately I live in an area where there is only one internet provider. Even though their prices are too high for the speed they provide, I have no other choice if I want to have internet. Fiber is installed just half a mile up the road, but unable to be installed where I live. The internet regularly goes out as well.

Mediacom Cable

1 of 5 stars February 27, 2026

I have been very disappointed with mediacom throughout the years. Seeing as they are currently the only cable internet provider in our area, we have used them for many years. We don’t have cable tv, so we use them solely for internet. Lately, the service has been even worse than usual. Our internet goes out several times every single day. Sometimes it can be resolved by resetting the modem, but other times it will be out for hours at a time. Every single time it rains, the internet goes out, even if there’s no thunder or lightning. The customer service they provide is seriously lacking as well, and we have had many a phone call getting the runaround about service disruptions, billing issues, and bill adjustment requests. We have heard that fiber is currently being installed in our area, and we look forward to switching as soon as possible.

I have had very little down time in the 7 years I have had service from them. In the few instances that there was an outage I was compensated for the missed time. The pricing has not increased and the service has been impeccable overall. I highly recommend them of they are available in the area where you live. It is hard to find a consistently more competitive option.

GFiber

5 of 5 stars July 18, 2025

I have been with my internet provider, Google Fiber, for around 5 years and have never experienced any issues. Speeds are always fast and never throttled. My husband and I play many video games regularly, watch and stream Twitch streams ourselves, and stream high quality videos and have rarely experienced lag. The pricing has remained consistent for those years as well and has never gone up in price. We have also had many storms in this area over the years and our service has never dropped despite the storms. I would highly recommend this provider to anyone looking for a reputable internet provider with reliable service.
