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.
