Best Internet Providers in Etowah, AR

Etowah, Arkansas residents who prioritize connectivity should consider MCEC Fiber. As the top-rated provider in town, MCEC Fiber's 1 Gbps maximum download speeds, combined with 44% coverage of the town, make it a solid choice. Starting at $59.95 per month, their services offer value for money for many residents.

However, MCEC Fiber's reach doesn't extend beyond 44% of Etowah. For those living outside this coverage area, both Viasat Internet and Hughesnet offer full town coverage with their satellite-based plans. Viasat Internet offers download speeds up to 30 Mbps, and Hughesnet provides speeds up to 25 Mbps. Both providers start their plans at a monthly cost of $49.99. Though their speeds can't rival MCEC Fiber's, their comprehensive coverage makes them reliable alternatives.

Reflecting on the overall technology coverage in Etowah, a 100% availability of DSL, fixed wireless, and satellite internet compensates for the absence of a cable service. This ensures that the providers are able to meet the community's needs effectively.
