Best internet deals for this month
Cable
Our take – Astound’s internet offers vary by location and are a bit all over the place. In some cases, Astound offers free service, enticing gift cards, bundles or discounted installation for a limited time. Astound’s newest deal, however, is the best we’ve seen in a while.
Cable
Fiber
Our take – Verizon changes up its promotions constantly, so if you don’t love this month’s offerings, check back to see what next month has in store.
Fiber
Cable
Our take – Spectrum internet is a decent deal on its own with speeds of 500Mbps or 1Gbps starting at $50 and $70 a month, respectively. Bundling makes Spectrum an even better deal with monthly discounts: You can get up to $20 off 500Mbps or $30 off gig service. Bundling also doubles your price guarantee from one to two years and nixes the $10 cost of your Wi-Fi and modem.
Cable
Fiber
Our take – Frontier Fiber offers a few speed tiers, including a new $30 200Mbps plan, but its Fiber 500 plan is arguably the best one-size-fits-all internet deal.

Fiber
Our take – With fast, symmetrical speeds, unlimited data, no equipment fees and no contract requirements, AT&T Fiber plans are a great deal on their own. Select areas will have three plans to choose from with maximum speeds of 300Mbps, 500Mbps or 1Gbps, while many will have two additional multi-gig options (2Gbps or 5Gbps).
Fiber
Fiber
Our take – Quantum Fiber doesn’t have the lowest pricing around, but it’s close. The 500Mbps plan starts at $50 per month and gig service will run you $75 monthly plus taxes and fees.
Fiber
Cable
Our take – It wasn’t long ago that bundling internet and TV services with the same provider came with some serious savings. Now, you’d be lucky to get any discount for bundling internet and TV. Unless you live in an area served by Xfinity, that is.

Mostly cable, some fiber
Our take – For those who prefer internet service on their terms with no hassles or hidden fees, there’s Cox StraightUp Internet. Starting at $50 per month, the service comes with download speeds up to 100Mbps, free equipment, free installation and a three-year price guarantee. Additionally, no contract or credit check is required to sign up.

Best internet deals FAQ
What’s the best internet deal?
While a slew of perks and promos might be enticing to customers, a low-cost-per-Mbps plan will often be the best internet deal.
For example, Frontier Fiber 500 includes maximum download and upload speeds of 500Mbps starting at $45 monthly for a cost per Mbps of 9 cents. Compare that to a similarly priced plan or one even cheaper from another provider — such as the Xfinity Connect plan, which has a lower starting price at $20 to $30 per month but significantly lower maximum download (150Mbps) and upload (10Mbps) speeds and thus a higher cost per Mbps — and Frontier Fiber 500 stands out as the much better internet deal.
If you have similar pricing and speed options from multiple providers, look for special promotions, equipment costs, contract requirements and other service factors to determine which provider has the best deal.
What internet deals are available to students and seniors?
Most major providers have a discount internet program available to qualifying low-income households, including those with students and seniors. Plans are typically in the $20 to $30 range and often come with broadband speeds of 50Mbps or higher.
