Best Internet Providers in Hillsdale, IL

In the quaint village of Hillsdale, Illinois, Mediacom takes the crown as the top internet service provider, followed by Viasat Internet and Hughesnet. Though it claims only 42% coverage here, Mediacom delivers unlimited cable internet with blazing download speeds of up to 1 Gbps. With rates beginning from $24.99 per month, it serves up a tasty concoction of rate and velocity. But, its less-than-ideal coverage suggests that some citizens may miss out.

Lagging not far behind, Viasat Internet and Hughesnet both provide a solid satelite connection across the whole village - 100% coverage. Monthly plans with Viasat start at $49.99, for which subscribers will enjoy top download speeds upward of 30 Mbps. Similarly, Hughesnet also features satellite plans beginning at $49.99 per month. The speed, however, tops off a bit slower at 25 Mbps.

Digging into the larger coverage landscape of Hillsdale, we find 5% DSL, 42% cable, no fiber, 98% fixed wireless, and 100% satellite. Despite the lack of fiber, it's safe to say every Hillsdale home has some form of internet access. But depending on your location and choice of provider, your connection type and speed may differ.
