Best Internet Providers in Higganum, CT

In Higganum, Connecticut, Xfinity holds the title as the leading internet service provider. Covering 99% of the area with a reliable cable connection, Xfinity ensures almost all residents are catered to. With a maximum download speed of 1.2 Gbps, this plan is ideal for high bandwidth users like film enthusiasts and big-time downloaders, all starting at $35 per month.

Frontier and T-Mobile 5G Home Internet are also strong contenders in Higganum. Frontier offers both DSL and fiber connections, covering 50% of the area with potential download speeds of up to 5 Gbps based on your connection type. Despite only covering half the area, its speedy service and competitive price of $49.99 per month make it a solid choice for those within its reach.

T-Mobile covers slightly less of the area (44%) with its 5G internet plan but competes fiercely with a maximum download speed of 245 Mbps and an enticing starting price of $50 per month.

While satellite coverage from Viasat is available to the entire region, it didn't break into the top three. Despite the 100% availability, it was outranked by competitors due to slower speeds and heftier pricing. This range of DSL, cable, fiber, fixed wireless, and satellite options makes Higganum a hotspot for diverse internet plan choices.
