Our methodology

We evaluate broadband providers in four categories: affordability, performance, value and customer satisfaction.

We evaluate broadband providers in four categories: affordability, performance, value and customer satisfaction. Each category contains multiple sub-factors, all of which are weighted differently to impact the provider’s overall score.

For each sub-factor, we score all providers on a continuous scale of one to five, relative to the industry as a whole. Because the average download speed in America is currently 180 Mbps, for example, we assigned all plans with download speeds between 100 and 299 Mbps a score between three and four. Xfinity’s 200 Mbps plan received a 3.50 score for download speed, while Spectrum’s 400 Mbps plan got a 4.16.

We only considered standardized data points in our scoring system. More abstract data like consistency of service and brand reputation is still part of our analysis, but we opted to let our writers address them in the context of each review.

Allconnect’s affordable choice: Starry

Starry has the cheapest broadband plan of any major provider in the area, offering speeds up to 200 Mbps starting at $50/mo. Adding value to an already low-priced plan, Starry also offers a price-for-life guarantee, unlimited data, no contracts and your equipment is included with the monthly price.

While there are cheaper internet plans available, such as AT&T’s 300 Mbps plan for $35/mo. or Cox’s 50 Mbps plan for $39.99/mo., these plans charge equipment fees and will likely raise their prices after 12 months. Starry Internet, therefore, is likely the cheapest option long-term.
