XFINITY Fiber
January 22, 2026 Xfinity internet service at my home has been consistently fast and reliable, easily handling streaming, gaming, and multiple devices without lag. Installation was quick, and the technician was professional and helpful. I appreciate the user-friendly app that allows me to monitor usage and reset the modem remotely when needed. While the pricing could be more competitive, the overall performance and stability make it a worthwhile investment.

Spectrum Fiber
January 22, 2026 I have had my internet for the past 6 years. The price will sneak up over time so for the most part that is what I do not like. They are good about adding a discount to your account if you call at the right time to get your bill down. I was able to get my bill from 150 to 80 with the most recent discount. I currently have 12 devices connected to it, all in 4 different rooms in the house. I would think this is pretty good internet.

VEXUS Fiber
January 21, 2026 The strengths of my internet provider lie largely in their promised vs. actual speeds, which are better than most I've tried. Most ISPs advertise the maximum theoretical speed of their connection - which I'd characterize as deceptive, given that essentially no connection ever reaches that speed. With Vexus, however, I'm closer than I have ever been. Despite being in a part of the country where connectivity is a bit of a desert, Vexus has managed to lay fiber and provide roughly 800-850 Mbps down for me on a 1 Gb connection. While that's still certainly not really "gigabit" internet, it brushes against that maximum speed much more regularly than any other ISP I've used.
For $65 a month, that feels like a steal. Vexus does use some of the same tricks (introductory pricing, etc.) as some other ISPs, but my price increases have been minimal over the past few years - and I'm getting a good enough deal that it feels like hardly an increase at all.
