Best Internet Providers in Nicholson, PA

In Nicholson, Pennsylvania, three major internet service providers dominate the scene. Xfinity leads the charge, delivering cable internet at a whopping maximum download speed of 1.2 Gbps. You cannot beat the value they offer, especially for large families or avid streamers, with prices starting from $35 per month. However, Xfinity's reach is limited, covering only 50% of Nicholson.

Nipping at Xfinity's heels are Frontier and Viasat Internet. Frontier serves up a DSL connection with download speeds fluctuating between 10 and 115 Mbps. Their rates start at $64.99 per month. While the price may be steeper and the speeds lower than Xfinity, Frontier's coverage manages to stretch to 37% of Nicholson.

Viasat provides satellite internet, reaching speeds up to 100 Mbps, starting from $49.99 per month. Its most impressive offering is its comprehensive coverage of the entire borough, making it a lifeline for those households other providers miss.

Nicholson boasts an Internet landscape as diverse as it is vibrant, with providers offering an array of options ranging from DSL, Cable, Fiber, Fixed Wireless to Satellite services,. However, barring Viasat, no other provider can claim to cover all of Nicholson. This leaves the door open for all providers to step up their coverage game.
