Find internet providers in Rye, NY
Find internet offered in Rye, NY – 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 TAKEAWAY
Our recommendation for Rye
5G fixed wireless can handle everyday streaming, browsing, and video calls, with 5G Home Plus offering up to 1000 Mbps down and 75 Mbps up and an 82/100 Speed Score, above Rye’s city average of 62. The 5G Home plan offers up to 300 Mbps down and 75 Mbps up with a 69/100 score, so it provides more limited performance than the Plus plan. Both plans are available to 19.2% of Rye, so the stronger option may not reach your address and you should verify availability before choosing Verizon.
About Verizon
Verizon’s 5G fixed wireless is an adequate choice for everyday browsing, streaming, and work, though wireless conditions can affect consistency. The faster 5G Home Plus offers up to 1000 Mbps download and up to 75 Mbps upload for $45/mo promotional rate, then $70/mo, with an 82/100 Speed Score, while 5G Home offers up to 300 Mbps download and up to 75 Mbps upload for $35/mo promotional rate, then $60/mo, with a below-average 69/100 score; both are available to 19.2% of Rye, so verify your address and compare fiber or cable first if either is offered.

THE TAKEAWAY
Our recommendation for Rye
Satellite internet can support everyday browsing, streaming, and video calls, but its higher latency may be noticeable for gaming and other real-time uses. Starlink’s Max plan offers up to 400 Mbps download and 30 Mbps upload for $130 per month, while the 200 Mbps plan offers up to 200 Mbps download and 25 Mbps upload for $85 per month; both have a Speed Score of 62/100, about the same as the city average of 62, and are available to 100.0% of Rye. Because satellite has more performance limitations than wired connections, consider checking other providers available at your address before choosing Starlink.
About Starlink
Satellite internet offers broad reach and supports everyday browsing and streaming, but its higher latency can be limiting for video calls, gaming, and other real-time activities. Starlink covers 100.0% of Rye with plans offering up to 100 Mbps for $55/mo, up to 200 Mbps for $85/mo, or up to 400 Mbps for $130/mo, though the below-average Speed Score of 62/100 makes it worth checking for fiber or cable first, especially if you work from home or need consistently responsive service.

THE TAKEAWAY
Our recommendation for Rye
At $94.99/mo for the first 12 months, then $119.99/mo, HughesNet’s Fusion plan buys up to 100 Mbps download and 5 Mbps upload, but its Speed Score is only 29/100. As a satellite service, it has limited performance and higher latency than other technologies, and its Speed Score is BELOW the city average of 62. Fusion is available to 100.0% of Rye, but check which other options reach your specific address before choosing, especially for video calls, gaming, and other latency-sensitive uses.
About HughesNet
At $39.99/mo for the first 12 months, HughesNet’s Lite plan offers up to 25 Mbps down and 3 Mbps up, while Select costs $49.99/mo for the first 12 months and offers up to 50 Mbps down and 5 Mbps up, so the value may be limited for modern households. Fusion costs $94.99/mo for the first 12 months and raises the ceiling to up to 100 Mbps down and 5 Mbps up, but all three satellite plans are available to 100.0% of Rye, so check your address for faster fiber, cable, or other local options first.

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