Best Internet Providers in Chester, CT

Xfinity dominates the internet market in Chester, Connecticut, offering a cable connection with zooming speeds up to 1.2 Gbps. With its services spread across 98% of the town, most of Chester's residents have access to their plans. What's more, their prices start at an affordable $35 per month. Given its lightning-fast speeds and widespread availability, Xfinity is a prime choice for high-bandwidth users, from gamers to high-definition content streamers.

But there are other fish in the sea. T-Mobile 5G Home Internet and Viasat Internet also offer worthwhile plans. 5G internet from T-Mobile hits download speeds from 33 to 245 Mbps. Though it only covers 30% of Chester, for those within its range the starting price is a solid $50 per month. Viasat offers a town-blanketing satellite connection, a lifesaver in areas where wired connections falter. While its maximum download speed is 30 Mbps, its 100% availability and a pocket-friendly starting price of $49.99 per month make Viasat a hard-to-resist alternative.
