Customer Reviews for Internet Service Providers in Nebraska
Customer Reviews
A Lincoln, NE Customer
Verizon Fixed Wireless
February 10, 2025 Macy B
WhiteSky Fiber
December 24, 2023 I feel like the speeds are better at my apartment than at my parent's house, and they pay a lot more for their internet. Internet is included in my lease so I'm not sure exactly what the price is. However, I do have a higher rent than most people in my city since I live in a nice downtown apartment with a lot of amenities. I've lived here almost a year now and it's only gone down once or twice. I don't notice any specific websites or apps slowing down. It's pretty helpful for doing schoolwork on my computer as it's really fast on my laptop. At home, sometimes my phone would work faster than my laptop, but I don't have that issue here.

Allo Fiber
June 24, 2023 Allo has been absolutely amazing in the 1.5 years I have had them as my internet provider. There were some issues when it was first set up, i.e speeds were super inconsistent, and they came out to fix it the day after I let them know of the issue. I've really enjoyed having them as my internet provider. I recommend them to everyone I can.

Allo Fiber
April 24, 2023 Allo is the best provider that Lincoln, Nebraska has right now. With that being said, the two other big names Windstream and Spectrum, have had such low ratings for such a long time that I feel Allo is seen as a tremendous service in the area, although price and performance equals to the lower-middle range of what the rest of the country seems to be getting.
I think I read somewhere that Lincoln, Nebraska is one of the slowest operating networks for internet and mobile, in the United States. So I feel like providers can get away with providing less than adequate service while charging a premium price. I think it becomes an even bigger issue when you branch out into the more rural areas of Nebraska.

Windstream DSL
April 05, 2023 The first year was fine price wise. Now we're on year 2 and it seems to overpriced. Plus it seems they have slowed down on speed. It's hard just having 2 devices streaming. Overall not satisfied with internet providers.
