Find internet providers in Kansas City, MO
Find internet offered in Kansas City, MO – 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.

UpdatedIn Kansas City, MO, your best bet is AT&T, covering ~91% of the city. Its fastest FCC-filed fiber tier reaches ~13% of the city, with speeds up to 5,000 Mbps, so check fiber availability rather than assuming it follows the footprint. Google Fiber leads around University of Missouri-Kansas City, covering 93.7% of 64110 with speeds up to 8,000 Mbps, and Westport (64111) is 83.9% Google Fiber with speeds up to 8,000 Mbps. River Market (64105) leans Everfast Fiber at 60.9%, with speeds up to 1,000 Mbps, while Google Fiber reaches 19.5% with speeds up to 8,000 Mbps. Kansas City University area (64106) also favors Everfast Fiber at 62.0%, a reminder that Brookside and Waldo addresses need their own checks.

Our recommendation for Kansas City
At $50/mo for the first 12 months, then $90/mo, AT&T Fiber 1 GIG offers strong value with up to 1000 Mbps both ways and a 96/100 Speed Score. That makes it an excellent choice and a competitive option above Kansas City’s 75 city average, but it is available to 20.9% of the city, so address-level eligibility matters. Where fiber is unavailable, AT&T Internet Air costs $55/mo promotional, then $60/mo, for up to 300/300 Mbps and a 78/100 score, making it a more limited fixed-wireless alternative.

Xfinity’s plan with up to 2000 Mbps download and 300 Mbps upload is available to 9.1% of Kansas City, so your odds of getting it depend heavily on your address. It has a 96/100 Speed Score, above the city average of 75, making it a top-tier option where fiber is available and a solid, reliable choice where the connection is cable. Because these plans can use either fiber or cable, confirm which technology reaches your address, since fiber generally offers lower latency and stronger upload performance.
About Xfinity
Xfinity’s 1 Gig, 500 Mbps, and 300 Mbps plans are available to 10.1% of Kansas City, so your odds of getting service are limited. Where your address qualifies, its Fiber/Cable lineup is an excellent option for streaming, gaming, and work, offering up to 2000 Mbps download and 300 Mbps upload for $90/mo for the first 12 months, or up to 1000 Mbps download for $60/mo for the first 12 months, but the exact technology and faster plans are address-dependent, so check availability before signing up.

Viasat is a limited-performance option in Kansas City, so consider checking what else is available at your address first. Its satellite plans score 8/100, below the city average of 75: Viasat Essentials offers up to 55 Mbps download and 4 Mbps upload for $69.99/mo, while Viasat Unleashed offers up to 34 Mbps download and 4 Mbps upload for $99.99/mo; both are available to 100.0% of the city.
About Viasat Inc
Viasat Inc is mainly a fallback option in Kansas City, so check whether faster fiber or cable service is available at your address first. Viasat Essentials is its fastest choice, offering up to 55 Mbps download and 4 Mbps upload for $69.99/mo across 100.0% of the city, but its satellite connection has a Speed Score of 8/100 and can be limiting for gaming, video calls, and several heavy users. Viasat Unleashed costs $99.99/mo for up to 34 Mbps download and 4 Mbps upload, so it is unlikely to be the best fit for modern high-bandwidth needs.

How We Analyze Internet in Kansas City
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 Kansas City report service availability from each provider.
Data Coverage for Kansas City
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.
