Best Internet Providers in Bigfork, MN

In Bigfork, Minnesota, Arvig reigns as the number one internet service provider. Through their DSL and fiber connections, they boast a staggering top-tier download speed of 1 Gbps. Despite this, Arvig only reaches 43% of Bigfork. So while their high-speed internet may not be available to everyone in the city, for those within their coverage area, it is ideal for high-demand internet activities such as heavy streaming or gaming. The starting cost for Arvig's plans begins at $70 per month.

Coming in second is Viasat Internet with their all-encompassing satellite connection — covering 100% of Bigfork. For a modest monthly starting price of $49.99, Viasat’s full coverage of the city makes it an appealing plan for many. However, their top download speed is significantly slower than Arvig’s, capping at 30 Mbps. While not ideal for heavy internet users, Viasat’s satellite connection is often the only feasible option in some parts of the city.

The good news for Bigfork residents is that there's a diversity of connection types— DSL, fiber, and satellite. Regardless of their location or internet demands they are sure to find a plan that best fits their needs.
