Best Internet Provider In Columbia, NC

Viasat Internet, Hughesnet, and Starlink are the dominant internet service providers in Columbia, North Carolina. At the top of the list, Viasat provides a satellite connection that covers the entire town. Their plans offer a maximum download speed of 30 Mbps, starting at $49.99 per month. This speed and price prove to be a valuable option for residents and small businesses.

Hughesnet, another satellite provider, ties with Viasat on town-wide coverage. While offering a slightly lower maximum download speed of 25 Mbps, its plans begin at an equally competitive $49.99 per month.

In contrast, Starlink also provides full town coverage but excels with its impressive speed range. Download speeds can reach between 50-220 Mbps, albeit at a higher starting price of $90 per month. For residents prioritizing high-speed access, Starlink might be the better fit.

Even though satellite providers offer 100% coverage, other connection types are present. Cable and DSL services reach 34% and 24% of the town, while fixed wireless covers 21%. Notably, the town of Columbia still lacks fiber connection.
