Find internet providers in Colorado Springs, CO
Find internet offered in Colorado Springs, CO – easily compare options from multiple providers to find the plan that best fits your needs.
FindBetterInternet was created by two guys with years of first-hand industry experience selling internet services online. Frankly, what we found left a lot to be desired. Internet providers can pay for their listings to be placed higher up the page, cookies can be captured, and your data can be shared for banner ads that stalk your online profile for the next week. We built FindBetterInternet to be different.
Our methodology translates the complex treasure trove of 115m locations on the FCC Broadband Map into one simple resource. We layer on pricing to help you sift through what’s good value.
We hope this is helpful for you and appreciate all the community’s support with this project. If you find it helpful, we do make a commission if you buy internet from a link on our address-check page. We pour that back into maintaining the site.
Every price and coverage figure on this site traces back to FCC Broadband Data Collection filings (the National Broadband Map); here’s exactly how we do it.

The 30-Second Verdict
UpdatedIn Colorado Springs, CO, your best bet is CenturyLink, covering ~92% of the city, with FCC-filed speeds up to 2,000 Mbps. However, if StratusIQ is available at your address, it can be the better, faster pick where its network reaches, with FCC-filed speeds up to 10,000 Mbps. Local results vary sharply: Broadmoor, 80906, is led by Xfinity at 52.8% with cable speeds up to 1200/35 Mbps, while Briargate, 80920, is led by Metronet Holdings at 48.7% with fiber speeds up to 5120/5120 Mbps. Old Colorado City, 80904, is a Quantum Fiber stronghold, reaching 62.2% with 2000/1000 Mbps fiber, plus 11.6% with 8000/8000 Mbps. North End, 80907, likewise favors Quantum Fiber at 56.0% with 2000/1000 Mbps, while 8000/8000 Mbps fiber reaches 12.0%. Students at Colorado College, University of Colorado Colorado Springs, and Colorado Technical University should check apartment-specific availability, since older buildings may still rely on DSL or copper for Zoom, streaming, and gaming. Fixed wireless from Kellin Communications, Verizon, or T-Mobile can be worth checking around Fort Carson, Peterson Space Force Base, and United States Air Force Academy, but service changes street to street, so confirm the exact address.

About Spectrum
Spectrum’s top cable plan offers up to 1000 Mbps download and 35 Mbps upload, which is excellent for 4K streaming, gaming, video calls, and many connected devices at once. Cable is a strong choice for most households, but Internet Gig is available to only 1.5% of Colorado Springs, so check your address first and compare faster providers if Spectrum is unavailable or only the 100 Mbps plan is offered.

THE TAKEAWAY
Our recommendation for Colorado Springs
At $55/mo promotional, then $60/mo, AT&T Internet Air offers up to 300 Mbps download and 300 Mbps upload, a reasonable value for symmetrical 5G fixed-wireless service. Its 77/100 Speed Score is about the same as Colorado Springs’ 78 average, though fixed wireless can be less consistent than wired technologies. Availability is address-specific, with this plan reaching 21.1% of the city, so confirm service at your address before signing up.
About AT&T
At $55/mo promotional rate, then $60/mo, AT&T Internet Air offers up to 300 Mbps both ways, a solid value for many households with a Speed Score of 77/100. It is an adequate fixed-wireless option rather than a top-tier fiber or cable connection, and availability is address-dependent at 21.1% of Colorado Springs, so check your address first if you need especially consistent performance for work, streaming, or gaming.

THE TAKEAWAY
Our recommendation for Colorado Springs
At $94.99 per month for the first 12 months, then $119.99, HughesNet’s Fusion plan buys up to 100 Mbps download and 5 Mbps upload, but its 29/100 Speed Score is below Colorado Springs’ city average of 78. Because this is satellite service with higher latency and limited performance compared with alternatives, check what other connection types are available at your address, even though Fusion is available to 100.0% of Colorado Springs.
About HughesNet
At $39.99 to $94.99 per month for the first 12 months, then $49.99 to $119.99, HughesNet offers up to 25, 50, or 100 Mbps over satellite, but those speeds come with the limitations of a slower, higher-latency connection. All three plans are listed across 100.0% of Colorado Springs, so check your address for faster fiber or cable service first, since HughesNet may be adequate for basic browsing but less suitable for gaming, video calls, or several users streaming at once.

Viasat Unleashed is slower at up to 34 Mbps download and 4 Mbps upload, with a Speed Score of 3/100.
About Viasat Inc
Viasat Inc is mainly a fallback option in Colorado Springs, so check your address for faster fiber or cable service before choosing it.

How We Analyze Internet in Colorado Springs
FCC Broadband Data
We use the FCC National Broadband Map, updated twice a year with provider-reported coverage at the census block level.
Speed Score
Our proprietary score weights technology type (fiber=100%, cable=85%, etc.) with download (70%) and upload (30%) speeds, ranked as a state percentile.
Coverage Calculation
Provider coverage shows what percentage of census blocks in Colorado Springs report service availability from each provider.
Data Coverage for Colorado Springs
How We Calculate Speed Score
Our Speed Score is a state-level percentile ranking (0-100) that shows how a provider’s service compares to all other internet options available in your state.
The Formula:
We calculate a raw performance score using:
Technology Factor × (Download Speed × 70% + Upload Speed × 30%)
Technology Factors:
Not all connections are equal. We weight each technology based on real-world reliability and performance:
- Fiber: 100% – Fastest, most reliable technology
- Cable: 85% – High speeds, shared neighborhood bandwidth
- Fixed Wireless (Licensed): 70% – Dedicated spectrum, weather-dependent
- Copper/DSL: 65% – Distance-limited, aging infrastructure
- Fixed Wireless (Unlicensed): 60% – Shared spectrum, variable performance
- Satellite (LEO): 40% – Low-earth orbit (e.g., Starlink), higher latency
- Satellite (GEO): 15% – Geostationary orbit, significant latency
Percentile Ranking:
After calculating raw scores, we rank every service option in your state by geographic coverage (census blocks served). A score of 85 means this service performs better than 85% of all internet options available in your state.
Data Source: FCC National Broadband Map data, updated twice a year.
How We Calculate Capabilities
Estimated Capabilities predict how well each internet plan supports common household activities based on speed requirements and connection type.
Rating Scale:
- Excellent – Optimal performance, handles peak usage easily
- Good – Reliable performance with minimal issues
- Fair – Functional but may experience slowdowns during heavy use
- Poor – Not recommended; expect frequent buffering or lag
How We Rate Each Category:
Streaming
Based on download speed. 4K streaming requires 25+ Mbps per stream; HD requires 5+ Mbps. We account for multiple simultaneous streams.
Multi-device
Evaluates total bandwidth capacity divided by typical household device count (phones, tablets, smart TVs, computers). Fiber and cable handle many devices better than DSL or satellite.
Gaming
Considers both upload speed (for sending game data) and latency (ping time). Fiber and cable excel here; satellite connections struggle due to inherent signal delay.
Whole Home
Assesses whether the connection can reliably serve an entire household during peak evening hours. Factors in technology type (shared vs. dedicated bandwidth) and total speed capacity.
Note: Actual performance depends on your specific location, network congestion, and equipment quality.
