Fastest Internet Providers in Fort Wayne, IN

EarthLink is the fastest provider in Fort Wayne, with speeds up to 5 Gbps.

As the fastest internet provider in Fort Wayne, with speeds up to 7 Gbps, Frontier’s fiber internet network features a symmetrical internet connection with equivalent download and upload speeds. While the Frontier Fiber 7 Gig plan is its fastest to date, you can also tap into the Fiber 1 Gig, Fiber 2 Gig or Fiber 5 Gig plans for quick speeds at an even better value overall. Fiber might also be preferable because it comes with unlimited data and no contracts.

For multi-gig speeds, you can also tap into Xfinity’s fiber internet network in Fort Wayne with speeds up to 10 Gbps. However, you’re more likely to have access to Xfinity’s cable network with download speeds up to 1 Gbps and even lower upload speeds that cap out at 35 Mbps. Although Xfinity’s download speeds aren’t symmetrical, they still rival fiber internet providers in terms of gigabit speeds. And with bundling options that include phone and TV plans, Xfinity is also affordable.
