Best internet providers in Dallas, TX
Our preferred choice for internet in Dallas is AT&T Fiber, one of the top-rated fiber providers by Reviews.org. However, actually getting fiber at your address is a toss-up–only 60% of households are able to access it, according to the Federal Communications Commission’s (FCC) availability maps. Luckily, there are some great alternatives in D-Town. Spectrum is our next pick. The cable provider has wide-scale availability throughout the 214 and offers gigabit speeds in addition to slower, lower-cost packages. There’s also affordable 5G fixed wireless providers like T-Mobile or Verizon, so you can save your pennies to visit The Ball or the Dallas World Aquarium.

Cable is bread-and-butter internet—widely available, often affordable, and very fast, delivering download speeds that range anywhere from 25Mbps to 1,200Mbps
DSL maxes out at 100Mbps, but many DSL customers get much slower speeds than that. DSL is becoming obsolete, but it’s still a solid option in rural areas.
