Customer Reviews for Internet Service Providers in New Jersey
Customer Reviews
A West Orange, NJ Customer
Verizon Fiber
November 28, 2025 Overall it is a good service I love my speed currently and while its not the fastest or the best its super reliable and it covers my house entirely. I definitely want to upgrade to a higher service at some point but the price point is so worth it to keep my current service that I am staying with them. I did have some issues when they upgraded my equipment but it did not effect my internet service so no complaints there

Starlink Satellite
June 16, 2026 Starlink is a satellite internet service from SpaceX that’s great for people in rural or remote areas. It usually gives fast speeds around 100 to 250 Mbps and works well for things like streaming, video calls, and browsing. It does cost more to set up at first, and bad weather can sometimes affect the signal, but overall it’s a solid option if you don’t have access to cable or fiber internet.

Optimum Cable
June 06, 2026 Our internet provider does give us consistent service and high speeds. It's Optimum, and I am happy with that aspect of the company. They are also our cable company, and that aspect of the company has changed for the worse. Prices are climbing but we get poorer service. They are closing local stores and pushing cell phone plans on us instead of fixing our issues. So I have a mixed feeling about the company overall, but the internet service has been solid and reliable.
