Cable from Spectrum offers broadband to all households in South Beloit covering 100% of the area.
Spectrum’s cable network is likely to offer faster speeds than DSL or satellite service, but South Beloit residents in densely populated areas may experience slowed speeds during peak usage times.
Internet prices for Spectrum start at $49.99/mo.*, which is about the same as the average starting price for internet in South Beloit, $54.15.
Spectrum customers who choose the lowest-priced plan can expect speeds up to 300 Mbps**, which comes to an estimated $0.17 per Mbps, about the same as the average cost per Mbps for the lowest priced plans in South Beloit, $0.73.
For those who value internet speed as much as cost, Spectrum offers download speeds up to 1,000 Mbps** and upload speeds up to 5 Mbps in South Beloit. These download speeds are available to 100% of the area, and are much faster than the average max speeds from all South Beloit's providers, 38 Mbps.
If you live in the heart of South Beloit, you’ll likely have options from cable and DSL internet providers. For those in rural areas or just outside South Beloit, however, satellite or fixed wireless internet may be the best internet option.
Satellite internet from HughesNet and Viasat offers 100% availability in South Beloit and surrounding areas. HughesNet starting prices are significantly higher than average in South Beloit at $64.99/mo. for speeds up to 25 Mbps. Viasat starting prices are significantly higher than average in South Beloit at $69.99/mo. for speeds up to 150 Mbps. Satellite internet is a less appealing option for many South Beloit residents, however, as service typically comes with high latency and low data allowances.
Fixed wireless is another popular internet option for those in rural areas. Those living in or just outside of South Beloit may have access to fixed wireless internet service from HughesNet, with plans starting at $64.99 and available download speeds up to 25 Mbps. Fixed wireless service is less likely to come with the high latency of satellite internet, but monthly data limits can still be an issue compared to South Beloit cable and DSL internet providers.
AT&T is the fastest internet provider in South Beloit with download speeds up to 5,000 Mbps. These speeds are available to 80% of households in South Beloit. The next fastest internet provider in South Beloit is Spectrum, offering download speeds up to 1,000 Mbps to 100% of the area.
Rise Broadband offers the cheapest internet in South Beloit with plans starting at $29.95/mo. This is significantly less than the average starting price for internet in South Beloit, $54.15.
Fiber and cable internet are similar internet service types, but fiber offers a few advantages over cable. Fiber internet can deliver faster upload and download speeds than cable in most areas, and is less vulnerable to slowed speeds during peak usage times. Cable does have the advantage over fiber in terms of availability, covering 89% of U.S. households compared to fiber’s 38%.
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.
Wi-Fi extenders are handy when your router can’t project a strong signal to everywhere in your home that you need it. Your internet provider may offer Wi-Fi extenders for an added monthly cost, or you can purchase one online or from most electronics retailers.
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.
