Lumen's fiber brand. Symmetrical multi-gig with locked pricing, rolling out fastest in Denver, Phoenix, Minneapolis and Seattle.

Midwest fiber overbuilder that goes into college towns and mid-size cities. Some of the lowest per-megabit pricing in the country.

Verizon completed its $20bn acquisition of Frontier on 20 January 2026, and the brand now operates as Frontier, a Verizon Company. Still one of the most aggressive fiber builders in the country, with cheap gigabit pricing.

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.

The widest fixed-wireless footprint in the country. One flat price with taxes included, and it reaches plenty of places cable never did.

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.
