Xfinity is the best overall, with cable speeds up to 2,000 Mbps reaching about 60% of the city, while its overall footprint reaches about 90%. TDS Telecom is the fastest where available, with fiber speeds up to 8,000/8,000 Mbps reaching about 10% of the city, so if it reaches your address, it is the faster choice. CenturyLink is the broadest backup where Xfinity does not reach, mostly DSL with a fastest common tier of up to 140 Mbps reaching about 10% of the city.

Local results vary sharply: Xfinity leads Browne’s Addition and ZIP 99206, while Quantum Fiber leads South Hill, ZIP 99204, and ZIP 99207 with fiber speeds up to 2,000/1,000 Mbps. The Garland District favors Quantum Fiber, with TDS Telecom also reaching a notable share, while Five Mile Prairie is the standout TDS area. Around Gonzaga University, Whitworth University, Washington State University Spokane, and Spokane Community College, student apartments can have different wiring, and older buildings may still be limited by DSL or copper, which matters for Zoom, streaming, and gaming. Fixed wireless options are worth checking for budget-minded shoppers, but coverage changes street by street, so confirm the exact address before choosing.

THE TAKEAWAY

Our recommendation for Spokane

Xfinity’s cable service reaches about 90% of Spokane, giving most shoppers a strong chance of finding service at their address. It is a solid option, with the 1.2 Gig plan available to about 90% of the city and the 2 Gig plan offering up to 2000 Mbps download and 35 Mbps upload with a 90/100 Speed Score, above Spokane’s city average of 62. The fastest 2 Gig tier is address-dependent and reaches only about 60% of the city, so confirm availability before choosing it.

Speeds and reach below are what the provider files with the FCC for each technology tier, by census block. The plans it actually sells here, with their own speeds and prices, are under Pricing & Plans; the two can differ.

THE TAKEAWAY

Our recommendation for Spokane

Fiber provides excellent day-to-day performance, and Quantum Fiber’s headline Speed Score of 90/100 is well above Spokane’s city average of 62. Its Fiber 2G plan offers up to 2,000 Mbps download and 1,000 Mbps upload for $70 per month, with a 90/100 Speed Score and availability to about 35% of the city. Faster options include the symmetrical Fiber 3G at up to 3,000 Mbps both ways, but exact plan availability depends on your address, and the best fiber tiers reach only about 4% of Spokane.

Speeds and reach below are what the provider files with the FCC for each technology tier, by census block. The plans it actually sells here, with their own speeds and prices, are under Pricing & Plans; the two can differ.

About Quantum Fiber

Quantum Fiber uses fiber, which is excellent for streaming, gaming, video calls, and multiple users, with plans offering up to 8,000 Mbps and symmetrical speeds. Its strongest options are address-dependent: up to 2,000 Mbps is available to about 35% of Spokane, while the up to 3,000 Mbps and 8,000 Mbps plans reach about 4% each, so check your address to confirm the faster fiber tiers are available.

THE TAKEAWAY

Our recommendation for Spokane

Fixed wireless can support everyday browsing, streaming, and video calls, though it may be more affected by signal and congestion than wired connections. Intermax Networks offers up to 200 Mbps download and 40 Mbps upload on its Lbr Fixed Wireless plan, with a Speed Score of 65/100, indicating limited performance compared with stronger alternatives. That plan covers about 2% of Spokane, so check your address carefully, and consider checking other providers first if higher-performance options are available.

Speeds and reach below are what the provider files with the FCC for each technology tier, by census block. The plans it actually sells here, with their own speeds and prices, are under Pricing & Plans; the two can differ.

About Intermax Networks

Intermax Networks offers fixed wireless, which can handle everyday browsing, streaming, and video calls but may be less consistent than cable or fiber. Its best local plan provides up to 200 Mbps download and 40 Mbps upload, but availability is highly address-dependent at about 2% of census blocks, so check for faster cable or fiber options first, especially if the 100 Mbps download and 20 Mbps upload fallback would not meet your household’s needs.

THE TAKEAWAY

Our recommendation for Spokane

Fiber is a good, low-latency choice for streaming, gaming, and busy households, with up to 1000 Mbps download and upload speeds and a Speed Score of 79/100, above Spokane’s average top speed score of 62. Availability depends on your specific address, and some locations may instead receive Lbr fixed wireless, which offers up to 25 Mbps download and 5 Mbps upload with a Speed Score of 5/100. That fixed wireless service has limited performance compared to fiber, so check which technology is available before choosing.

Speeds and reach below are what the provider files with the FCC for each technology tier, by census block. The plans it actually sells here, with their own speeds and prices, are under Pricing & Plans; the two can differ.

About Ziply Fiber

Fiber is Ziply’s standout option, offering up to 1000 Mbps both ways for smooth streaming, video calls, gaming, and work from home, though this excellent service reaches only about 0% of census blocks in Spokane and is address-dependent. Elsewhere, Ziply mainly offers fixed wireless with up to 25 Mbps download and 5 Mbps upload, which may be adequate for basic use but can feel limiting for multiple users or modern household needs, so check your address for the fiber plan and compare faster options first.

THE TAKEAWAY

Our recommendation for Spokane

Viasat is a limited-performance option compared with alternatives in Spokane, with a provider Speed Score of 20/100 versus the city average of 62. Its Viasat Essentials satellite plan offers up to 55 Mbps download and 4 Mbps upload for $69.99 per month, with availability at 100% of the city. Since satellite service can have higher latency and this provider offers more than one plan, check your address and compare other available technologies before choosing.

Speeds and reach below are what the provider files with the FCC for each technology tier, by census block. The plans it actually sells here, with their own speeds and prices, are under Pricing & Plans; the two can differ.

About Viasat Inc

Viasat Inc is a fallback option rather than a first choice, since its satellite plans have below-average speeds and higher latency for modern needs. Viasat Essentials offers up to 55 Mbps download and 4 Mbps upload for $69.99 per month, while Viasat Unleashed offers up to 34 Mbps download and 4 Mbps upload for $99.99 per month, and both are available to 100% of Spokane; check your address for faster fiber or cable service before choosing satellite.

THE TAKEAWAY

Our recommendation for Spokane

At $94.99 per month for the first 12 months, then $119.99, HughesNet’s Fusion plan buys up to 100 Mbps download and 5 Mbps upload, but its 23/100 Speed Score is below Spokane’s city average of 62. Satellite technology can have higher latency and more limited real-world performance than fiber or cable, so consider checking other providers first for demanding streaming, gaming, or work needs. Fusion is available to 100.0% of Spokane, while the lower-priced Select and Lite plans offer up to 50/5 Mbps and 25/3 Mbps, respectively.

Speeds and reach below are what the provider files with the FCC for each technology tier, by census block. The plans it actually sells here, with their own speeds and prices, are under Pricing & Plans; the two can differ.

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 its satellite service is below average for speed and may feel limited for modern households, especially at the lower tiers. It reaches about 100% of Spokane, yet you should check for faster fiber or cable service at your address first because satellite’s higher latency and modest upload speeds can make video calls, streaming, and busy-home use less comfortable.

How We Analyze Internet in Spokane

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 Spokane report service availability from each provider.

Census Tracts: 112 tracts
Census Blocks: 10,388 blocks analyzed

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.

Data source: FCC National Broadband Map (Broadband Data Collection), republished roughly twice a year; provider plan lists checked monthly.

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.
