Best Internet Providers in Cherokee, IA

CenturyLink delivers DSL internet in Cherokee, Iowa, offering speeds up to 80 Mbps with an entry price of $55 per month. Covering 56.20% of the area, CenturyLink ranks as the most accessible traditional internet provider. With DSL availability in Cherokee at 55%, CenturyLink nearly saturates the market for this service type, making it a sensible choice for moderate-speed internet.

Verizon offers 5G internet at speeds up to 50 Mbps, starting at $50 per month. Though it delivers lower speeds compared to CenturyLink, its 5G technology appeals to those eager for the latest connectivity. However, Verizon covers only 32.20% of Cherokee, limiting access to less than one-third of residents. Despite this, Verizon's 5G presents a modern alternative to DSL as well as fixed wireless and satellite connections, which have broader coverage.
