Best Internet Providers in River, KY

Consider Viasat if you live in River, Kentucky. Viasat provides a satellite connection with speeds up to 150 Mbps and covers the entire community. Its high-speed service, despite a starting price of $199.99 per month, supports a range of online activities, making it ideal for heavy internet users. This ensures every resident can access the service without connectivity issues.

HughesNet is another option for River residents. It offers satellite internet with 100% coverage, like Viasat. However, HughesNet's maximum download speed is 100 Mbps, and it starts at a more affordable $49.99 per month. This makes HughesNet a better choice for those looking for a budget-friendly solution. Given that DSL and fixed wireless cover only 1% each and fiber is unavailable, HughesNet effectively fills the gap where other connection types fall short.
