How many internet providers are there in Alaska?

We track 7 providers with a footprint somewhere in Alaska: EarthLink, GCI, Verizon 5G Home, T-Mobile Home Internet, Starlink, HughesNet, Viasat. No single one covers the whole state, so the choice at any address is much shorter — check your city for the providers that reach it.

Is fiber internet available in Alaska?

Yes, in parts of the state. EarthLink, GCI sell fiber in Alaska, mostly in and around the larger cities. Fiber gives you the same speed up as down and the lowest latency.

What is the cheapest internet in Alaska?

The lowest real cost we track in Alaska is Internet 100 from EarthLink, at $50 a month averaged over two years with equipment and installation included (advertised at $50). Prices last checked September 2026; whether it reaches your address depends on the provider's local footprint.

What is the fastest internet in Alaska?

GCI sells the fastest plan we track in the state, at 2 Gbps down and 100 Mbps up. Plans that fast are usually only built in the largest markets.

What are the internet options in rural Alaska?

Outside the cable and fiber footprints, the options are 5G home internet (Verizon 5G Home, T-Mobile Home Internet) where the cell signal is strong, and satellite (Starlink, HughesNet, Viasat), which reaches essentially every address. Starlink's low-orbit service has latency low enough for video calls; the geostationary services do not.
