Ranked
Every provider in Newport News
Ordered by our score, which weighs technology, speed, symmetry, the real two-year cost and the terms. How we rank.
The largest cable provider in the country. Wide availability and fast downloads, but uploads lag fiber and the price steps up sharply once the promo ends.
A reseller rather than a network owner: it buys capacity on other carriers' lines and sells it with no data caps and no throttling.
Fixed wireless over Verizon's 5G Ultra Wideband. Cheap if you already have a Verizon phone line, and there is nothing to install.
Cable service across 41 states with no data caps and no contracts. Straightforward pricing for the first year, then a large step-up.
Cable across 17 states with strong metro coverage in Phoenix, Las Vegas, San Diego and New Orleans. Good speeds, above-average prices.
The widest fixed-wireless footprint in the country. One flat price with taxes included, and it reaches plenty of places cable never did.
Cable serving small and mid-size Midwest and Southern markets that the national operators never built. Often the only wired option in town.
Low-earth-orbit satellite. The only satellite service with latency low enough for video calls, and it works essentially anywhere with sky.
The other geostationary satellite option. Cheaper than Viasat at the entry tier, with the same latency limits.
Geostationary satellite covering the whole country. Latency makes it a last resort, but it reaches addresses nothing else does.
Coverage is recorded by city, not by street address, and availability in the US changes block by block. Confirm with the provider before you plan around any of this.
