Best Internet Providers in Wheeler, IL

In the village of Wheeler, Illinois, Wabash Communications reigns as the primary internet provider, serving 75% of the area. Offering fiber connection, Wabash's impressive maximum download speed of 1 Gbps sets it apart. Its competitive starting monthly price of $56 reflects the impressive value, considering the extensive coverage and high speed.

Conversely, satellite providers Viasat Internet and Hughesnet secure full coverage of Wheeler, promising internet access to every resident. Although their maximum download speeds are lower (50 Mbps for Viasat and 25 Mbps for Hughesnet), these providers maintain appeal with a reasonable starting monthly price of $49.99. The critical role Viasat and Hughesnet play in Wheeler's connectivity landscape is further highlighted given the lack of cable internet and the mere 9% coverage from DSL. With complete 100% satellite coverage and a solid 60% coverage through fixed wireless, Wheeler's residents can count on reliable internet access.
