Best Internet Providers in Steptoe, WA

In Steptoe, Washington, Viasat Internet ranks as the leading provider, distinguishing itself with robust satellite connections. Thanks to Viasat, every home in town has access to the internet with the maximum download speed topping at 10 Mbps. This speed is adequate for light to moderate internet usage. Starting at $49.99 a month, Viasat's plans combine respectable speed and broad coverage.

Hughesnet, another satellite internet provider in Steptoe, matches Viasat's 100% coverage. However, Hughesnet goes the extra mile with a maximum download speed of 25 Mbps - and that's for the same starting price of $49.99 per month.

In third place comes Starlink, also delivering a 100% satellite connection. Depending on the location specifics, Starlink's speed ranges between 50 and 220 Mbps. While Starlink's speeds are higher, so is the price - their plans start at $90 per month.
