Customer Reviews for Internet Service Providers in Kansas
Customer Reviews
A Wichita, KS Customer
T-Mobile Home Internet Fixed Wireless
June 07, 2026 this service is basically a gateway with a cellphone signal. to me, it is a giant hotspot that is unlimited. overall it is good but slows down after two months. it is not what it is advertised as but is ok for office work.

Verizon Fixed Wireless
May 04, 2026 I like Verizon. They have decent quality speeds, but my gripe is with the signal, being unreliable, even in a big city. It is the 4G/5G, and randomly drops multiple times a day. Not only does it get frustrating, it affects how much money I make, since my work requires the internet. Also, the price is a little steep, but at this point I believe all internet services are too expensive.

IdeaTek Fiber
April 14, 2026 Switched from Cox to Ideatek when they first came in January of this year. Speed and price wise they are a lot better than Cox. Although for some reason when the kids try and game after school they struggle more with lag than before the switch. It’s like once the sun sets the internet starts acting up.

Cox Cable
September 21, 2025 I would really rather not use Cox. They are the only one’s who service my building, so my hands are tied unless I want to pay AT&T to set up my line. The speed and quality are fine. Their customer service is what really takes them down for me. They don’t stick to their word, and they raise rates without providing notice. I would switch in a heartbeat if I had the money.
