Best Internet Providers in Tulsa, OK
Tulsa’s best home internet provider is AT&T Fiber. AT&T Fiber is a fiber-optic internet service, not to be confused with “AT&T Internet,” which uses a much slower IPBB connection type similar to DSL and doesn’t include benefits like symmetrical speeds and no data caps. AT&T Fiber offers speeds starting at 300 Mbps and going up to 5 Gbps. AT&T has several good fiber plans at different maximum speeds and price points, the most affordable of which starts at $55 per month.
Not every address in Tulsa is served by AT&T Fiber, so there’s a chance that you won’t find it in your area of town. If that’s the case, we’d recommend that you consider Cox. Cox is Tulsa’s biggest cable internet provider which offers nearly universal coverage of the city. It offers broadband speeds that can reach up to 2 Gbps. Cox is known for its bundle deals, which start at $111 per month and include services like pay TV, and you can also find internet-only plans starting at $50 per month.
There are other options in Tulsa, including DSL internet plans from the aforementioned AT&T Internet as well as from Kinetic by Windstream. DSL plans aren’t as fast as their broadband cable and fiber counterparts, but they may make sense as budget options for some households with lower internet needs.
You can get the best internet deals in Tulsa by keeping an eye out for promotions from internet providers, especially for new customers. Big nationwide providers, like AT&T Fiber and Cox, usually offer discounts that are the best way to save money on your internet bill. Currently, AT&T offers a 20 percent discount when you pair an AT&T Fiber plan with an unlimited wireless plan. Cox is offering a similar deal: a $15 monthly discount when you bundle your internet with Cox Mobile. Deals and promotions change often, sometimes more than once a month, so check back frequently for the most updated discounts.
Fastest Internet Providers in Tulsa, OK
Tulsa’s fastest internet service company is AT&T Internet, which offers plans with speeds of up to 5 Gbps.
Both AT&T Fiber (up to 5 Gbps) and Cox (up to 2 Gbps) offer very fast speeds, but it’s worth noting that AT&T Fiber’s upload speeds are faster than Cox’s. That’s because fiber internet has “symmetrical” speeds, which start to make a big difference if you are gaming, streaming, or sharing video. AT&T Fiber’s upload speeds are just as impressive as its download speeds, 5 Gbps, but Cox’s upload speeds only reach 100 Mbps. Cable and DSL networks are also susceptible to being overloaded with traffic when many people are online in the area.
Also, don’t forget about data caps, which can affect your internet speed or trigger extra charges when you go over your allotted downloads. Another reason to choose a fiber provider is that you don’t have to worry about caps, because fiber providers don’t have them. Cox customers and those who choose other companies will be subject to data caps unless they pay for an unlimited data add-on to their plan.

Internet Availability in Tulsa, OK
Tulsa is served by a couple of very fast internet providers. One of those — Cox — is available almost everywhere in town, with a service area that covers 89.6% of Tulsa. The other, AT&T Fiber, is available in only some areas of Tulsa (though AT&T does offer a DSL service, AT&T Internet, in many of the places where its fiber service is not yet available). The big question, then, is whether your area of Tulsa is served by AT&T Fiber or not.
With the exception of the immediate area of Downtown Tulsa, Riverview, the East Village District, and parts of The Pearl, AT&T Fiber’s network is stronger near the center of town. Its footprint looks a bit like a donut — it’s missing those core inner neighborhoods, but it covers places like Maple Ridge North, Florence Park, Turner Park, Maplewood, Louisville Heights, and Lacy Park.
Where AT&T’s fiber network starts to disappear is at the edge of town, particularly in the southern and eastern parts of the city. If you’re coming up across the Arkansas River from Bixby and entering Tulsa neighborhoods like Sun Meadow or Cedar Ridge Park, you’ll find AT&T Fiber only in small patches — a bit here, near the casino, a bit there, in Chimney Hills, but never all over consistently like it is further into town. It won’t be until you reach LaFortune Park and Patrick Henry that the fiber network starts to become really widely available. You’d see a similar situation if you were to come in from Broken Arrow; you wouldn’t see much of any coverage in places like Regency Park, but then you’d enter much better-connected neighborhoods once you crossed I-44 into Patrick Henry, Highland Park, and Moeller Heights.
