Best Internet Providers in Harrisburg, PA

Xfinity, Verizon Fios, and T-Mobile 5G Home Internet are Harrisburg’s leading internet providers. Xfinity is the best option, offering download speeds up to 2 Gbps through its cable internet network. But Xfinity is more than just fast speeds, as the ISP also boasts an impressive coverage map that blankets 99.6 percent of Harrisburg.

Verizon Fios is another excellent choice for households in Harrisburg. Verizon Fios provides symmetrical speeds up to 940 Mbps using fiber-optic technology — one of the fastest and most reliable ways of going online.

If neither of these providers are available in your area, you might want to check out T-Mobile 5G Home Internet. Unlike traditional ISPs, 5G home internet does not require any preexisting infrastructure to install. Furthermore, its wide availability in the Harrisburg region means few won’t qualify. T-Mobile 5G Home Internet customers can expect speeds between 33 and 182 Mbps.
