Best Internet Providers in Milbank, SD

In Milbank, South Dakota, CenturyLink leads as the premier internet service provider with a DSL connection that covers 53% of the city. With an impressive maximum download speed of 60 Mbps, CenturyLink starts its plans at just $50 a month — a worthwhile investment for such robust speed and expansive coverage.

Offering satellite connections, Viasat Internet and Hughesnet rank second and third in the area. They stand out with a comprehensive coverage of 100% across Milbank, ensuring universal access to internet service. Viasat begins its plans at $49.99 per month, offering download speeds of up to 10 Mbps, while Hughesnet matches the starting price and provides even greater speeds of up to 25 Mbps.

Despite the slower download speeds compared to CenturyLink, both Viasat and Hughesnet's comprehensive coverage holds vital importance — especially in a city where DSL only covers slightly more than half and cable reaches just 71% of the area. And while fiber boasts an almost absolute coverage at 99%, the presence of satellite providers like Viasat and Hughesnet plays an essential role in connecting those parts of the town where other internet technologies stumble.
