The 30-Second Verdict
UpdatedRoles count plans reaching at least 5% of Port Orchard. Faster only in small pockets: Xfinity 2 Gig up to 2,000 Mbps (~4% of the city); Quantum Fiber Fiber 2G up to 2,000 Mbps (~0% of the city).
Astound Broadband is the best overall pick, with cable speeds up to 1,500 Mbps reaching about 94% of Port Orchard, and its overall footprint is about 95%. CenturyLink is the safe fallback where Astound does not reach, mostly DSL, with its fastest common tier up to 80 Mbps reaching about 8%. In McCormick Woods, Astound wins decisively at about 88%, while Kitsap PUD fiber reaches about 3%, so fiber is available but limited.
ZIP 98367 shows a similar pattern, with Astound serving about 80%, Kitsap PUD fiber reaching about 4%, and Xfinity reaching about 3%. East Port Orchard and Mile Hill deserve an address check because the fiber pockets and provider boundaries can change from one street to the next. Verizon is the strongest fixed wireless alternative city-wide, with speeds up to 300 Mbps reaching about 35%, while T-Mobile and AT&T cover smaller areas. Check your exact address before choosing, since FCC coverage can shift noticeably between nearby blocks.

THE TAKEAWAY
Our recommendation for Port Orchard
Astound Broadband is a strong choice in Port Orchard, with top-tier fiber and a reliable cable option.

About Astound Broadband
Astound Broadband is a strong option in Port Orchard, especially where its cable service offers up to 1500 Mbps download and about 94% availability, or its fiber plan offers up to 2000 Mbps both ways, though fiber reaches only about 4% of census blocks. Availability is address-dependent, and locations without cable or fiber may be limited to copper with up to 1000 Mbps download and 10 Mbps upload at about 5% coverage, which may not be sufficient for modern households, so check your address for the faster options first.

THE TAKEAWAY
Our recommendation for Port Orchard
CenturyLink is a competitive choice in Port Orchard, with a 76/100 Speed Score that is above the city average of 56. Its Fiber Internet plan is a top-tier option, offering up to 940 Mbps both ways for $75 per month, but it is available to only about 3% of the city. Address availability matters because CenturyLink’s 100 Mbps DSL plan, available to about 4% of the city, has a lower 23/100 Speed Score and offers up to 100 Mbps download and 10 Mbps upload, so check which technology reaches your address before choosing.

About CenturyLink
CenturyLink is worth considering, especially for households that can get its excellent fiber option, but faster service is highly address-dependent. Fiber offers up to 940 Mbps both ways for $75 per month, though it is available to about 3% of Port Orchard, while the fallback DSL plan reaches about 4% and offers up to 100 Mbps download and 10 Mbps upload for $55 per month for 12 months, which may be limiting for modern households. Check your address for fiber or another faster provider before choosing CenturyLink DSL.

At $94.99 per month for the first 12 months, then $119.99, HughesNet’s Fusion plan buys you up to 100 Mbps download and 5 Mbps upload, but its 23/100 Speed Score is below Port Orchard’s city average of 56. Satellite has higher latency and more limited real-world performance than fiber or cable, so consider checking other providers first, especially for gaming, video calls, or multiple heavy users. Fusion is available to 100% of Port Orchard, though availability and the best technology can still depend on your specific address.

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 the satellite connection and Speed Score of 23/100 make it a below-average value for demanding modern use. It reaches 100.0% of Port Orchard, so it can be a practical fallback where faster internet is unavailable, but check your address for fiber or cable first, since those technologies are generally better suited to streaming, gaming, video calls, and multiple users.

How We Analyze Internet in Port Orchard
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 Port Orchard 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.
