Internet Access in Paxton, Nebraska
Paxton has two major Internet service options to grapple with — cable (6.67% availability) and DSL (95.16% coverage). Coaxial cable Internet access is generally provided by TV providers, using copper coaxial TV cables mounted on telephone poles. DSL is delivered over twisted copper phone lines. DSL generally tends to be slower performing compared to cable service. This is especially true for addresses not able to access a cable alternative.
Viasat Internet (formerly Exede) or HughesNet are the most common Internet options in Paxton.
