Best Internet Providers in Parsons, KS

In Parsons, Kansas, AT&T Internet stands as a strong choice for internet service, offering IPBB and fixed wireless connections that cover 35% of the city. Although the coverage isn't extensive, AT&T can provide a solid mix of speed and affordability. The service allows a maximum download speed of 25 Mbps for a starting monthly rate of $55.

For those where AT&T isn't available, viable alternatives include Viasat Internet and Hughesnet. Via satellite connection, both providers manage to cover the entire city. Viasat pulls ahead with download speed, furnishing a maximum of 50 Mbps as opposed to Hughesnet's 25 Mbps. Despite both services sharing a starting monthly price of $49.99, the additional speed from Viasat might tip the scale in its favor.

However, a look at the larger picture of Parsons' coverage data makes it clear that choice is not so straightforward. The city boasts 81% cable coverage, 36% DSL, and a noteworthy 96% fixed wireless along with a lackluster 7% fiber. The ubiquitous satellite connection reaches 100%. Accordingly, even though Viasat and Hughesnet cover every corner of Parsons, they might not always provide optimal speeds or preferred connection types. Making the right choice ultimately depends on individual needs and availability.
