Xfinity is the consumer brand of Comcast and runs one of the largest cable broadband networks in the United States.

EarthLink sells internet nationally without owning last-mile infrastructure in most markets, renting capacity on other companies' fiber, copper and wireless networks and billing the customer itself. The catalogue spans fiber from 100 Mbps to 5 Gbps, DSL from 18 to 75 Mbps, and fixed wireless and 5G home service for addresses wired networks do not reach. Fiber and DSL plans include unlimited data. Pricing is not published openly — EarthLink quotes rates only after you enter an address.

Twelve-month term on fiber and DSL; 5G home service is month to month
Data allowance:
Unlimited data on fiber and DSL; fixed wireless plans are metered
T-Mobile 5G Home Internet is a fixed wireless service that reaches the house over T-Mobile's 5G network rather than a wire. T-Mobile quotes typical download speeds of 170–354 Mbps on the entry plan and 170–498 Mbps on the mid tier, with uploads of 12–55 Mbps; what an individual address gets depends on signal from the nearest tower. All three plans include unlimited data, a gateway at no extra charge and no annual contract, and a $35 device connection charge applies at setup.
Contract:
No annual contract on any plan
Data allowance:
Unlimited data, with reduced speeds possible during congestion and above 1.2 TB per month
Equipment:
Gateway included at no additional charge
Verizon 5G Home Internet delivers home broadband over the same 5G network Verizon uses for mobile service, with a receiver placed in the home rather than a line run to it. Three tiers are sold — 5G Home, 5G Home Plus and 5G Home Ultimate — quoted at download speeds of up to 100, 150 and 300 Mbps respectively. All three come with unlimited data, an included router and no annual contract, and each carries a price lock running three, four or five years by tier. This is the fixed wireless product and is separate from Verizon Fios, which runs on fiber.
Contract:
No annual contract; price locked for three to five years by plan
Data allowance:
No data limits on any 5G Home plan
Equipment:
Router included with every plan at no additional charge
Viasat sells geostationary satellite internet across the continental United States, aimed at addresses where wired broadband has not been built. The current residential lineup is two plans — Essentials, which includes a fixed allowance of high-speed data, and Unleashed, which is unlimited but slows in priority for heavy users. Viasat quotes service speeds of up to 25 to 150 Mbps and states that the figure varies by location, so the tier available at one address may not be available at another.
Contract:
Unleashed is month-to-month; Essentials requires a 12-month service term
Data allowance:
Essentials includes 150 GB of high-speed data; Unleashed is unlimited but deprioritized above roughly 850 GB in 30 days
Equipment:
Dish and modem are leased for $15 per month
ispMint is listed as offering 5G home internet in the Columbus, Georgia area. Service arrives over a mobile network rather than a wire, so the speed at a given address depends on the signal it can get.
About this data:
Coverage and speeds for this ZIP code were compiled from the availability and speeds each
provider publishes for this area, rather than from the
FCC National Broadband Map.
Speeds shown are the maximum a provider advertises in this area, not a guaranteed or typical
rate. Prices are not published by the FCC, so every price here was taken from a rate the
provider advertised publicly, last checked September 2026 — several
providers quote only after an address check.
Providers report availability by area, so service can differ from one address to the next.
Confirm with the provider before ordering.
Every provider in Seattle, WA, side by side
The same providers as above, stripped back to the things worth comparing first.
Prices are the lowest each provider advertises anywhere, not a quote for this address.
Coverage is recorded per provider, so these figures show the widest-reaching provider of each kind
rather than the combined footprint of all of them. Read each as a floor: at least this much of
this city can get it. These are the figures published for Seattle, WA as a whole — the share within 98108 on its own is not published, and can be higher or lower.

runs fiber here. Fiber uploads at close to its download speed, which cable and fixed wireless do not.

comfortable well below the top tier, and the upload speed is usually what people notice missing.

Worth knowing
Under 25 Mbps
One person, one thing at a time
Email and browsing · Music streaming · Standard-definition video
Below the FCC's definition of broadband. Workable alone, frustrating shared.
25–100 Mbps
A small household
HD streaming on two or three screens · Video calls · Working from home
Enough for most couples and small families. The upload speed matters more than the download here.
100–300 Mbps

The range most households land in, and the one with the most competition on price.
300–1,000 Mbps

Multiple 4K streams · Uploading video or large files · A house full of devices
Worth paying for if you upload as much as you download. Otherwise the gain is hard to feel.
