Internet Provider Reviews in Chicago, IL

As a Chicagoan, you probably know where to get the best hot dogs, cracker-crust pizza, and brownies—but what about the best home internet? The most populous city in the Midwest offers so many internet providers that it's hard to choose. So I've pulled the top three options for you to consider. You might like Xfinity Internet, which is available in almost every neighborhood in the city. AT&T Fiber is also stellar for its fast speeds and fair prices. And if neither of those do it for you, you can also look at Google Fiber Webpass, an avant-garde fixed wireless option for folks who love fast speeds at a bargain deal.

The best internet deal I've found in Chicago, Illinois, saves 40% on top streaming services with Xfinity's StreamSaver add-on that costs $15 monthly and includes AppleTV+, Netflix Standard with ads, and Peacock Premium (with ads). If you want some live news and sports, you can also opt for the juiced-up NOW StreamSaver add-on for $30 monthly. This includes all the same streaming services alongside 125+ channels of live TV.

T-Mobile 5G Home Internet also offers some sweet deals, like a $200 or $300 Virtual Prepaid Mastercard for select internet plans. I'd say T-Mobile is fairly budget-friendly already since every plan also includes unlimited data, free equipment, and a price guarantee for five years. You can also unlock a further $15 discount on your internet bill when you also have a T-Mobile cell phone plan. There are also no early termination fees or contracts, so you can easily cancel anytime. Want to see what else is available? Check out the latest T-Mobile internet deals and promotions.

Finally, in my search for Chicago internet deals, I came across an AT&T Fiber deal that offers a $150, $100, or $50 AT&T Visa Reward Card when you sign up for an AT&T Fiber plan. You can also combine this with AT&T’s Internet + Wireless bundle discount, which takes 20% off your monthly internet bill. If you don’t already have a wireless plan, you can get the discount by signing up for an internet plan and wireless on the same day. Make sure to select “Yes, I’m interested in adding wireless after checkout OR I already have an eligible wireless plan,” while you’re checking out your order.
