The 30-Second Verdict
UpdatedXfinity is the best overall, with cable speeds up to 2,000 Mbps reaching about 14% of the city, while its broader footprint reaches about 83%. AT&T is the fastest where available, with fiber speeds up to 5,000/5,000 Mbps reaching about 32% of the city, and if it reaches your address, it is the faster choice.
Local results vary sharply: Broadmoor is an AT&T stronghold, with fiber reaching about 72% of the ZIP, while Highland leans heavily toward Xfinity, covering about 67% with cable. South Highlands is more competitive, with AT&T covering about 45% and Xfinity about 34%, both offering their strongest listed tiers there. In ZIP 71103 around Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center-Shreveport, Xfinity covers about 84%, while ZIP 71104 near Centenary College of Louisiana favors AT&T at about 68%. Southern University at Shreveport is more mixed, with Xfinity at about 43% and Sparklight at about 25%, and ZIP 71108 gives Xfinity the edge at about 45%; Spring Lake can differ from these patterns street by street. Fixed wireless from providers such as Nextlink, Verizon, or T-Mobile may fill gaps, but students should verify infrastructure for reliable Zoom, streaming, and gaming. Confirm the exact address before choosing, especially in apartments or older areas that may still rely on DSL or copper.

THE TAKEAWAY
Our recommendation for Shreveport
At $90/mo for 12 months, AT&T Internet 5 GIG offers up to 5000 Mbps both ways over fiber, a top-tier option with a 96/100 Speed Score and strong value for demanding households. That score is above Shreveport’s city average of 66, but fiber availability is address-specific, and the plan reaches about 33% of the city, so confirm your address before choosing it over AT&T’s fixed wireless option.

About AT&T
AT&T offers strong value in Shreveport, from $35 per month for up to 300 Mbps to $90 per month for up to 5,000 Mbps, with the fastest fiber plan providing excellent, symmetrical speeds for demanding households. Fiber availability is address-dependent, reaching about 33% to 36% of the city depending on the plan, while AT&T Internet Air reaches about 32% and offers up to 300 Mbps download but only 30 Mbps upload, so check your address for fiber first because the fallback may be less suitable for heavy uploading or multiple users.

About Optimum
Optimum is a good fit for households that want fast cable internet for streaming, gaming, and several connected devices, especially with its 1 Gig plan offering up to 940 Mbps download and 50 Mbps upload for $50 per month. Coverage is limited, reaching about 3% of Shreveport for the 500 Mbps and 300 Mbps plans and about 3% for the 1 Gig plan, so availability is highly address-dependent, but the 500 Mbps and 300 Mbps options are still solid choices where offered.

Our recommendation for Shreveport
Up to 1000 Mbps download and 500 Mbps upload can handle multiple 4K streams, busy households, gaming, and large uploads, and the Lbr Fixed Wireless plan’s Speed Score of 82/100 is competitive in Shreveport. Fixed wireless performance can vary with address and local conditions, and this plan reaches about 1% of the city, so confirm availability and consider the 500 Mbps plan, which reaches about 43%, if the top tier is unavailable.

About Nextlink
Nextlink’s fastest plan offers up to 1000 Mbps download and 500 Mbps upload, enough for multiple 4K streams, video calls, gaming, and large downloads in a busy household. It is fixed wireless rather than fiber or cable, and availability and performance depend on your address, so check for the faster tiers first because the lower-speed options may feel limiting for modern households.

Our recommendation for Shreveport
Verizon’s 5G fixed wireless connection offers up to 300 Mbps download and 75 Mbps upload, making it an adequate choice for streaming, browsing, and many everyday household needs, though performance can vary more than with wired connections. Its 5G Home plan has a Speed Score of 72/100, above Shreveport’s city average of 66, and is available to about 60% of the city. Confirm availability at your address, since Verizon’s 5G coverage may not reach every home.

About Verizon

Satellite internet is widely available and can support streaming, browsing, and everyday use, but its higher latency may be noticeable for gaming and some video calls.

About Starlink
Starlink uses satellite internet, so it can provide broad availability and up to 400 Mbps download speeds, but satellite latency may affect gaming, video calls, and other real-time activities. Its Residential Max 400 Mbps plan is a good option where wired service is limited, with availability to 100.0% of Shreveport, though you should check your address for fiber or cable first because those technologies generally offer a better everyday experience; the 200 Mbps and 100 Mbps plans are more limited for busy modern households.

About HughesNet
At $39.99 to $94.99 per month for the first 12 months, HughesNet offers up to 25 to 100 Mbps download speeds, but satellite service has limited performance for modern needs and the higher prices are not especially strong value. Its top Fusion plan reaches 100.0% of Shreveport and offers up to 100 Mbps download and 5 Mbps upload, yet you should check your address for faster fiber or cable options first, since HughesNet is mainly a fallback when those are unavailable.

How We Analyze Internet in Shreveport
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
A state-wide percentile of each plan’s maximum advertised download speed against every option filed with the FCC in the state, all technologies on one scale. It is not a measured speed test.
Coverage Calculation
Provider coverage shows what percentage of census blocks in Shreveport report service availability from each provider.

How We Calculate Speed Score
The Speed Score is a state-wide percentile from 0 to 100. It answers one question: of every internet option filed with the FCC in this state, across every technology, what share is slower than this plan’s maximum advertised download speed?
What goes in:
- The plan’s maximum advertised download speed, as the provider files it with the FCC and lists it for sale.
- Every other serviceable option in the state from the FCC Broadband Data Collection, counted by the census blocks it reaches.
Speed Score = share of the state’s filed options with a lower advertised download speed
A score of 85 means this plan’s advertised speed beats 85% of the options filed in the state. Fiber, cable, DSL, fixed wireless and satellite are all on the same scale, so a 1,000 Mbps plan scores the same whoever sells it.
What it is not: a measured speed test. It does not include latency, upload speed, reliability or congestion. Real throughput at an address varies with wiring, equipment and time of day.
How providers are ordered on this page: each provider’s tier scores are averaged across the census blocks it serves, then multiplied by the share of the city it reaches. Wired providers rank ahead of wireless-only ones, and satellite last, because their filings describe a signal footprint rather than a plant. The same rule sets the title and the 30-second verdict.

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.
