Best Internet Providers in Auburn University, AL

At Auburn University, AT&T Internet and Viasat Internet emerge as key providers for students, faculty, and staff. AT&T Internet, with an IPBB connection, offers speeds up to 18 Mbps starting at $60 per month. However, its coverage reaches only 50% of the campus, limiting accessibility. Viasat Internet counters this with full campus coverage, faster speeds up to 150 Mbps, and a higher starting price of $99.99 per month. AT&T appeals to cost-conscious users, while Viasat suits those needing broader coverage and higher speeds.

Auburn University's internet options include fixed wireless and satellite, with no DSL, cable, or fiber services available. This lack of variety indicates the challenge of providing widespread, high-speed internet. Viasat's satellite service addresses coverage gaps, ensuring all corners of the campus stay connected. Where AT&T's coverage falls short, Viasat’s complete coverage becomes crucial. Additionally, EarthLink 5G Home Internet covers the entire campus, offering a more affordable option with speeds up to 25 Mbps at $39.95 per month. These services highlight the effort to bridge connectivity gaps and enhance internet access at Auburn University.
