Customer Reviews for Internet Service Providers in Nevada
Customer Reviews
Steven F
Zito Cable
September 06, 2026 Zito Cable service suffers from extensive packet loss, especially between 10pm and 8am local. The download is advertised at 400Mbps and that is mostly provided; however, the upload is advertised at 25Mbps and averages 5Mbps throughout the day and regularly dropping to less than 1Mbps from 10pm to 8am local. Packet loss also increases significantly from 1 to 5% during the day to between 10 and 50% during the evening. Frequent connection drops occur throughout the entire day.
Steven F.
Zito Cable
September 06, 2026 For 3.5 years service has disconnected multiple times a day and suffered from packet loss that ranges from 4% to over 50%. I pay for 400/25Mbps and on average, when the connection holds, my upload is usually 4Mbps and regularly drops below 1Mbps. I am constantly told that the conditions of the network will be resolved soon. I have been waiting 3.5 years and still no resolution.

Cox Cable
July 21, 2026 Service is great but outages do occur. Price is 500% of what it should be. Actually more than double the price if there was competition
K'yvonne W.
Cox Cable
June 12, 2026 COX used to be a really good internet provider, but it has declined in all honesty. The price has gone up, but the quality has gone down. I have constant buffering issues or even issues with the internet just turning off, even when there's no outage or scheduled maintenance. It's about ~300 a month, for terrible quality. I'm trying to convince my grandparents to switch but they're a little stubborn. COX has done nothing but get me issues, and my mobile data runs better than the internet provided by COX. I've even considered getting my own modem to use in my room instead of using the bad internet we have now.
Shannan C.
Cox Cable
June 07, 2026 I am very dissatisfied with our internet provider Cox Communications. We are constantly having outages, and they no longer want to provide credits every time this happens. We have four people in the home, and it just doesn’t seem to be giving us good connectivity. We are always restarting our router, and get barely a signal at times. In safe, I can no longer even use my phone in my room. I tried calling to upgrade, but they want an additional $100 a month to the next plan upgrade. I tried to switch to Verizon home, but they are not in our area yet. It seems to be Cox as a monopoly in our area. I am going to keep trying to find another provider to switch to.
