Find internet offered in Hillsboro, OR – 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 Hillsboro, OR, your best bet is Ziply Fiber, covering ~78% of the city; its fiber network reaches ~68% with speeds up to 6,000 Mbps. Xfinity is also widely available, covering 83.8% of the city, with cable reaching ~80% at speeds up to 2,000 Mbps, but Ziply’s fiber is the more compelling first check for heavy home use. In South Hillsboro, ZIP 97123, Ziply Fiber wins 86.5% of the ZIP with fiber speeds up to 6000/6000 Mbps. Orenco Station, ZIP 97124, also favors Ziply at 77.2%, while Xfinity reaches 15.2% and Quantum Fiber appears at 2.4%, so the building still matters. In Jackson School and Downtown Hillsboro, do not assume the ZIP-wide pattern applies to every address, especially in student apartments or older buildings that may still rely on copper or DSL. With Pacific University in town, students should prioritize reliable connections for Zoom, streaming, and gaming. Fixed wireless is worth checking where wired service misses, with Verizon reaching 51% of the city at up to 300/20 Mbps and T-Mobile reaching 29% at up to 100/20 Mbps. Coverage changes street to street, so confirm the exact address, technology, and available speed before signing up.

Up to 2500 Mbps download and 2500 Mbps upload can handle demanding households, large uploads, 4K streaming, and low-latency gaming. With a Speed Score of 97/100, Hunter’s fiber is a top-tier option and is above Hillsboro’s average top speed score of 72. Availability depends on your address because the fiber plan covers 0.2% of Hillsboro, while the provider’s licensed fixed wireless option offers up to 200 Mbps download and 20 Mbps upload with a 70/100 score, making it more limited for heavy usage.
About Hunter Communications Inc
Up to 2500 Mbps both ways can comfortably support many connected devices, 4K streaming, gaming, and demanding work from home. Hunter’s fiber is excellent but available in only 0.2% of census blocks, while its up to 200 Mbps down and 20 Mbps up fixed wireless is more widely available at 27.4% of census blocks but may feel limiting for heavier modern use, so check for fiber or another faster option at your address first.

How We Analyze Internet in Hillsboro
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 Hillsboro report service availability from each provider.

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.

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.
