Best Internet Providers in Vancouver, WA

For high-speed internet in Vancouver, Washington, we recommend fiber-optic internet from Quantum Fiber. Though it’s not an option for every resident (Quantum serves about one-fifth of Vancouver), it’s a smart choice if you can get it. Quantum offers speeds up to 8 Gbps, which is extremely fast. Most households should actually be able to get by with quite a bit less (1 Gbps should feel very fast for most users). Quantum offers a “Price for Life” that locks in your plan, so they’re a popular choice for folks looking for a long-term solution.

Xfinity also offers fiber internet in Vancouver, though you’re probably more likely to see Xfinity Cable, which has a wider reach than Xfinity Fiber. Xfinity connections are a popular choice in the area, especially for shoppers looking for bundle deals that include Xfinity’s other branded offerings, such as Xfinity Voice, Xfinity Mobile and Xfinity Home Security. Xfinity also offers TV plans, like Xfinity X1 and Xfinity StreamSaver. Bundles start at $55 per month, and internet speeds can reach up to with Xfinity plans.

Quantum Fiber is a fiber internet provider that services 0.5% of the city. It doesn’t have a strong presence in the city center, save for a few patches of availability. It has more accessibility north of the city, in areas like Hough and Arnada. It also has a stronghold near the Vancouver Waterfront by the Columbia River.

Another wired internet provider in the city is Xfinity, which covers 98.6%. It has the most availability compared to Quantum Fiber, but it only offers cable internet to Vancouver residents. It covers the aforementioned areas where Quantum Fiber doesn’t have coverage, as well as areas farther west of the city center. The only patches of dead zones are the ones surrounding the city center and the area east of the Veterans of Foreign Wars Memorial Plaza.
