Internet provider frequently asked questions

Windstream is the fastest internet provider in Nevada with download speeds up to 2,000 Mbps. These speeds are available to 94% of households in Nevada. The next fastest internet provider in Nevada is Windstream, offering download speeds up to 2,000 Mbps to 18% of the area.

Central Iowa Broadband is the largest fiber-optic internet service provider in Nevada, covering 5.751% of the city. Windstream also offers fiber internet in Nevada and is available to 1.237% of households.

Fiber internet providers are likely to offer the fastest, most consistent speeds for the money. Cable internet providers can also deliver fast speeds, up to 100 Mbps and higher, but are more vulnerable to slowed speeds during peak usage times. If you’re shopping for cheap internet, a DSL provider may be the best option for your household.

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.

According to the FCC, 93% of households have access to three or more providers. In many areas, a cable, DSL, satellite and possibly fiber-optic provider may be available. You are unlikely, however, to find multiple providers of the same internet type, such as two cable providers, in the same location because operating expenses in an area already served by another provider can be too high to be profitable.
