Fastest Internet Providers in Los Angeles, CA

Frontier is the fastest provider in Los Angeles, with speeds up to 7 Gbps.

Los Angeles has a couple of good high-speed internet providers. The fastest of all is AT&T Internet, which offers a top speed of up to 10 Gbps.

If you want internet that feels “fast,” you’re probably going to want at least 250 Mbps for a small household and at least 300-500 Mbps for a larger one. It’s certainly possible to get by with less — much less, if you have a small household and aren’t a big user of bandwidth-hogging activities like livestreaming — but if you want that lightning-fast feeling, you’ll want to get up into these speed ranges. If you can get 1 Gbps, that’s even better; after that, though, you can expect increases in speed to get harder to notice. Only the biggest internet power users need more than 1 Gbps.

Internet Availability in Los Angeles, CA

All over Los Angeles, you’re going to find two major internet service companies: AT&T and Spectrum. But that doesn’t mean that your options will be exactly the same everywhere. AT&T has two networks in Los Angeles, and they are not created equal. Their “AT&T Internet” product runs on a network that makes heavy use of DSL. The one you want is “AT&T Fiber,” which uses a fully fiber-optic network.

So where can you get AT&T Fiber? AT&T Fiber serves 18.9% of Los Angeles, and the weakest part of its network is in the Downtown LA area and in the parts of South Los Angeles that are closest to downtown. Head up north to Dodger Stadium, and things get a lot better: Echo Park and Silver Lake are very well served by AT&T Fiber.

Other AT&T Fiber hotspots include Laurel Canyon and some (but not all!) of West Hollywood and Beverly Hills. Mid-City and Crenshaw are good areas for AT&T Fiber, too, but Culver City and neighboring Santa Monica are relatively poorly served. Inglewood, as well as the parts of South Los Angeles that are closest to it, are better spots for AT&T Fiber.

As for cable internet, that one is simple: Spectrum covers 92.6% of Los Angeles. You’ll find it everywhere from the Hollywood Sign to LAX and in every place in between.
