Internet coverage for rural areas
If you live in the heart of Everett, you’ll likely have options from DSL, cable, and fiber-optic internet providers. For those in rural areas or just outside Everett, however, satellite or fixed wireless internet may be the best internet option.
Satellite internet from HughesNet and Viasat offers 100% availability in Everett and surrounding areas. HughesNet starting prices are significantly higher than average in Everett at $64.99/mo. for speeds up to 25 Mbps. Viasat starting prices are significantly higher than average in Everett at $64.99/mo. for 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 Everett DSL, cable, and fiber-optic internet providers.
Internet provider frequently asked questions
Astound is the fastest internet provider in Everett with download speeds up to 1,000 Mbps. These speeds are available to 71% of households in Everett. The next fastest internet provider in Everett is Xfinity, offering download speeds up to 200 Mbps to 100% of the area.
Astound offers the cheapest internet in Everett with plans starting at $25.99/mo. This is significantly less than the average starting price for internet in Everett, $45.99.
Verizon is the largest fiber-optic internet service provider in Everett, covering 3.525% of the city.
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.
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.
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.
