Best Internet Providers in Menlo Park, CA

AT&T Internet, ranked first among internet providers in Menlo Park, California, offers a blend of IPBB and fiber connections. This dual approach allows AT&T to provide impressive maximum download speeds of up to 5 Gbps. With coverage spanning 73% of the city, it's a viable option for many residents. Pricing starts at $55 per month, which, considering the high-speed offering, presents good value.

In contrast, Xfinity relies on a cable connection but provides near-total coverage across Menlo Park with an impressive 99% reach. Despite its lower maximum speed limit of 2 Gbps compared to AT&T, Xfinity still offers robust service that meets most users' needs at a competitive starting price of $35 per month. For those in remote areas where wired connections may not be feasible, Viasat Internet provides satellite-based services covering the entirety of Menlo Park. Although its maximum speed is considerably lower at 100 Mbps and costs slightly more than Xfinity at $49.99 per month, Viasat ensures no resident is left without an internet connection option.
