Best Internet Providers in Lake City, CO

CenturyLink stands out in Lake City, Colorado, as a prominent internet provider. Using a DSL connection, it delivers download speeds of up to 80 Mbps. Its plans begin at $55 per month, offering competitive pricing. Though CenturyLink covers just 48.8% of the town, its speed and affordability make it a strong option for its service area. This coverage is significant in a region with limited fixed broadband.

In areas without CenturyLink service, Viasat Internet offers a solid alternative. Viasat uses satellite technology to cover 100% of Lake City, providing download speeds up to 150 Mbps. However, its monthly plans start higher at $99.99, reflecting its broad reach and advanced tech.

Other notable options include HughesNet, another satellite provider. It achieves 99.9% coverage with a top download speed of 100 Mbps. HughesNet's plans start at $49.99 per month, making it a more affordable choice than Viasat. Although both satellite providers ensure widespread coverage, fixed wireless connections also contribute significantly, covering 61% of the town. While Lake City lacks cable and fiber options, these satellite and fixed wireless solutions provide reliable internet access, serving the needs of underserved areas.
