Default Tips for finding internet provider at possible new address?

We are looking at moving into a new rental home. It may sound crazy, but I like to check internet speeds of the places I may into first.

However, AT&T, Spectrum, T-Mobile 5g home, and VZ do not provide service there. I don’t know where to look past those.

Any suggestions? How can I find out an internet provider at an exact address?

Thanks in advance!

You can start here...

https://www.highspeedinternet.com

or here...

https://broadbandnow.com/

These will give you an idea of which providers should be available and what the max available speeds are in that area. You can then try going here...

https://broadbandmap.fcc.gov/#/

and entering a prospective address to see what the reported speeds are to cross reference.

Actual speeds may of course vary. For my home I currently have spectrum and per the above sites 1gb/sec internet is available however last time I checked, my home which was built in 2002 only actually qualifies for 400mbps as the hub is 1gb compatible, but the fiber connections to each home haven't yet been installed/upgraded to allow for those advertised speeds.

Thanks! I think you hit the nail on the head with the last link (the fcc gov one).

It looks like Rise Broadband has the best speed in that area. Unfortunately it’s only 100 mbps. I have never heard of them. I have always been able to use ATT or Spectrum. I hope they would be reliable.

Thanks for the quick reply!!
