Internet Providers in

Tucson has several solid broadband options, but our data suggests that the best choice in town is Quantum Fiber. It offers speeds up to 8 Gbps on a fiber connection type. The only downside: a limited market area that covers only about one-tenth of Tucson. Depending on where you live, fiber internet may or may not be an option for your home Wi-Fi network.

If you don’t have access to plans from Quantum Fiber in your area of Tucson, you’ll most likely want to sign up for a plan or bundle with one of Tucson’s two cable internet companies: Cox and Xfinity. If you have your choice between the two, you’ll want to focus on Xfinity, which offers significantly better speeds that are more appropriate for streaming and online gaming. Xfinity advertises speeds ranging from to ; that’s faster than DSL, fixed wireless and satellite options. Cox offers a similar range in speed, specifically to , but in terms of reliability, we recommend Xfinity. The unfortunate reality, however, is that you’re not likely to be able to choose between the two providers — you’ll probably have access to only one provider or another.

There are other options in town, including CenturyLink DSL internet and T-Mobile 5G Home Internet. We don’t generally recommend DSL for most households, since it’s not as fast or reliable as other connection types. CenturyLink DSL speeds go up to and plans start at per month which isn’t a great value compared to Xfinity and Cox. Xfinity standalone internet plans start at per month while Cox starts at per month. Both providers offer bundles that include more than just internet, like home phone and TV services. Xfinity bundles start at per month while Cox bundles start at per month. If you’re looking for value, you’ll find them with bundles!

In some parts of town, you may want to consider 5G home internet providers like T-Mobile 5G Home Internet and Verizon 5G Home Internet. While we wouldn’t recommend these services over fiber or most broadband cable connections, they can be a worthy option if you don’t have high-speed wired internet options in your neighborhood of Tucson.

Internet providers run special deals and promotions every month, especially for new customers, so if you’re thinking about switching, you have a high chance of saving money while you’re at it. For example, Cox offers a five-year Price Lock Guarantee with its 2 GIG, 1 GIG, or 500 Mbps internet plan and Cox Mobile Unlimited line. It also offers Cox Security Suite Plus powered by McAfee for free when you sign up for any Cox internet plan. If you like upfront money for signing up with a provider, you might consider T-Mobile 5G Home Internet for its $300 Virtual Prepaid Mastercard sign-up bonus that applies to the Amplified Home Internet and All-In Home Internet plans. These deals and promotions change often for any ISP, so make sure to check back often for the latest deals and see how you can save money for your internet service.
