Spectrum Cable
November 06, 2025 Spectrum is fine, it's pretty affordable and the speed of service is ok. It does sometimes go out on us for no reason or buffer a lot, but we pay $80 a month so it's not horrible. My biggest qualm with them is the customer support aspect. Every time we've had to call they give us false information or make promises they don't keep. We have also been overcharged a few times.

August 27, 2024 It’s decent but for the price, I feel it could be better. There are times it takes forever to load in certain areas.

T-Mobile Home Internet Fixed Wireless
May 21, 2023 Before I used a 4G LTE on my previous phone and I would say my internet provide was really good. Except when I went hiking my signal was interrupted, but in some areas I would regain internet access. Switching to a 5G LTE made no difference to me to be honest. I still get a little lag here and there. I wouldn't say its horrible, but it could be better. Sometimes when I used the train station I would lose signal, but its a 50/50 when I go ride the train station.
