Satellite internet from HughesNet and Viasat offers 100% availability in 90501 and the greater Torrance area. HughesNet starting prices are higher than average in Torrance at $64.99/mo. for speeds up to 25 Mbps. Viasat starting prices are significantly higher than average in Torrance at $69.99/mo. for speeds up to 150 Mbps. Satellite internet is a less appealing option for many in the 90501 ZIP, however, as service typically comes with high latency and low data allowances.
AT&T is the fastest internet provider in the 90501 ZIP code with download speeds up to 5,000 Mbps. These speeds are available to 100% of households in 90501. The next fastest internet provider in the 90501 ZIP code is Spectrum, offering download speeds up to 1,000 Mbps* to 100% of the area.
Sonic Telecom offers the cheapest internet in the 90501 ZIP with service starting at $39.99/mo. This is significantly less than the average starting price for internet in Torrance, $55.99.
Upgrading your internet plan or switching to a new provider that offers faster internet service is the best way to get significantly faster speeds, but that will likely also come with a price increase. To get faster internet without changing your plan or provider, upgrade your internet equipment or reduce the number of devices connected to your network.
Speeds of 10 Mbps and higher are good for gaming, but what you really want to consider when choosing an internet service for gaming is latency, or ping. Latency is the measure of how long it takes for your device to communicate with the server and is the main contributor to lag. The higher the ping, the more likely you are to experience lagging. Shoot for an internet service with latency below 100 ms.
Each video streaming service has varying recommended speeds, but speeds up to 10 Mbps will often handle streaming on one device. For HD and 4K streaming, consider faster speeds of at least 25 Mbps to reduce buffering and maintain optimal picture quality.
Download speeds of 25 Mbps and above are considered broadband speeds, and can handle most online activities including streaming and gaming. For households with multiple devices using a Wi-Fi connection, speeds of 100 Mbps and higher are likely to offer a better online experience. Learn more about what speeds are best for your home.
