LONGVIEW, TX INTERNET
Find internet providers in Longview, TX
Find internet offered in Longview, TX – 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
UpdatedStart with fiber: Sparklight reaches 53% citywide with up to 1,000/1,000 Mbps, Etex Communications 19% with up to 1,000/100 Mbps, AT&T 6% with up to 5,000/5,000 Mbps, Frontier 6% with up to 2,000/2,000 Mbps, and Etex Telephone 5% with up to 1,000/100 Mbps. Fiber suits big uploads, competitive gaming, heavy work-from-home, and device-packed homes; Sparklight leads Longview Heights (75602) at 70.8% and North Longview (75605) at 66.5%. Cable follows: Longview Cable Television Company Inc reaches 63% with up to 1,000/50 Mbps. South Longview (75603) is mixed, with cable plenty for streaming and calls, usually cheaper, so do you need multi-gig fiber? Students at LeTourneau University and Kilgore College Longview Campus need wired service for Zoom, streaming, and gaming, while apartments may retain DSL or copper. Fixed wireless is a budget backup: Verizon reaches 43% at up to 300/20 Mbps. If fiber or cable misses your address, Starlink satellite is the fallback, reaching about 100% with up to 220/30 Mbps. Coverage changes street to street, so confirm your address and check apartments are wired for fiber.

THE TAKEAWAY
Our recommendation for Longview
At $95/mo for the first 12 months, then $135/mo, AT&T Fiber 5 GIG buys up to 5000 Mbps download and 5000 Mbps upload with a 99/100 Speed Score, making it a top-tier option and above the city average of 71. Fiber 1 GIG is a lower-cost alternative at $50/mo for the first 12 months, then $90/mo, with up to 1000 Mbps download and 1000 Mbps upload and a 93/100 score. Where fiber is unavailable, AT&T Internet Air costs $55/mo promotional rate, then $60/mo, and offers up to 300 Mbps download and 300 Mbps upload, but its 75/100 score reflects the more variable performance of fixed wireless. Because fiber reaches 5.7% of Longview and AT&T offers both technologies, confirm which connection your address qualifies for before choosing.

Satellite internet offers wide availability, but its higher latency can make gaming, video calls, and other real-time activities feel less responsive. Starlink’s Residential Max plan provides up to 400 Mbps download and 30 Mbps upload with a 65/100 Speed Score, below Longview’s city average of 71. The 200 Mbps and 100 Mbps plans both score 43/100, so shoppers seeking stronger real-time performance should consider checking other providers first, even though all three plans show 100.0% availability in Longview.
About Starlink
Starlink uses satellite internet and is listed at 100.0% coverage in Longview, offering a practical option for streaming and everyday use where wired service is unavailable, though satellite latency can be noticeable for gaming and live video calls. Plans range from 100 Mbps for $55/mo to up to 400 Mbps for $130/mo, but check for fiber or cable at your address first because those technologies are generally a better fit for demanding modern internet use.

Etex Telephone’s technology depends on your address, and its copper plans offer up to 50/3 Mbps with a Speed Score of 38/100 or up to 10/1 Mbps with a Speed Score of 4/100, meaning limited performance compared with alternatives.
About Etex Telephone

That excellent option is address-dependent, though, and the fallback copper plans offer only up to 50 Mbps download and 3 Mbps upload or up to 10 Mbps download and 1 Mbps upload, so homes outside the fiber area should check for faster alternatives before signing up.

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.
