Best Internet Providers in Mountain View, CA

Xfinity holds a strong position as Mountain View, California's top internet provider, offering its services to 95% of the city. They supply blazing-fast cable connection speeds up to 2 Gbps, for as little as $35 a month. This equips subscribers with the capacity to stream high-definition videos and download hefty files with ease.

The competition isn't too far behind though. AT&T Internet, despite only having a 44% coverage, boasts both IPBB and Fiber connections. What sets AT&T apart is its immense speed of 5 Gbps, even eclipsing Xfinity’s speeds. A cost of $55 per month gives residents in the covered areas a formidable alternative.

Another contender in this race is Viasat Internet, a satellite provider. Their coverage is unparalleled, reaching every corner with 100% coverage. Viasat trades off speed for reach, delivering a maximum speed of 100 Mbps at $49.99 per month. It's the perfect solution for those where other connections fall short.

Ultimately, Mountain View presents a variety of internet providers, each with unique offerings in price and connectivity, ensuring residents can find what fits them best.
