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: Optimum

Our choice for best cheap high speed internet in Brooklyn, NY, goes to Optimum’s 300 Mbps Internet plan. For only $35/mo. you get super-fast internet. It’s not the fastest plan on the market, but 300 Mbps is plenty for most households. To put it in perspective, you only need 25 Mbps to stream content in 4K, or 50 if it’s a live broadcast. The one downside to Optimum, however, is that prices will increase by $75/mo. after the first year. For that reason, you may be better off going with Verizon internet if you are okay with a slightly slower speed plan of 200 Mbps.

Verizon: Best for customer service

Depending on where you live, you may have access to Verizon Fios, which is a fiber optic internet or Verizon DSL. Both plans are extremely affordable and come with consistent, high speed internet. However, Verizon Fios is the significantly better value. If only Verizon DSL is available to you, you may want to consider Optimum or Spectrum instead.
