Across 53 providers, Florida’s internet landscape is led by traditional cable internet, but 5G home internet is quickly gaining traction as a fast and convenient alternative.

Cable covers most of the internet scene in Florida, but 5G home internet has taken hold of two-thirds of the state. Fiber follows, covering over half of the state. For more options, DSL helps provide more in the way of an affordable choice, and satellite can reach even the most remote places.

Spectrum is one of the biggest cable internet providers in the Sunshine State, and those looking for 5G are likely to turn to T-Mobile. For the fast speeds and reliability of fiber, look to providers like AT&T, Crown Castle, and Frontier.

While most residents have internet access, 8.2% of Floridian households do not have an internet connection at home—which is where BEAD funding comes into play.
