Best Internet Provider In Essex, IL

Essex, Illinois has Verizon at the helm as the leading internet service provider. Offering 5G internet, Verizon provides maximum download speeds of up to 300 Mbps. This suits households in need of fast internet connections for activities such as gaming and online streaming. Prices start at $50 monthly, providing a balance between affordability and speed. However, Verizon only covers around 60% of Essex, meaning it's not an option for everyone.

On the other hand, Viasat Internet offers satellite coverage to the whole of Essex, providing more range than Verizon. With maximum download speeds of 30 Mbps, it's slower than Verizon but still adept for basic services like email and web browsing. Rates for Viasat start slightly lower than Verizon, coming in at $49.99 a month. For people living in areas where other providers can't reach in Essex, Viasat is a worthy option. Overall, while different parts of Essex have access to various plans, satellite services offer the most consistent coverage village-wide.
