Internet provider frequently asked questions

Windstream is the fastest internet provider in Fulton with download speeds up to 2,000 Mbps. These speeds are available to 96% of households in Fulton. The next fastest internet provider in Fulton is Windstream, offering download speeds up to 2,000 Mbps to 0.750% of the area.

Spectrum offers the cheapest internet in Fulton with plans starting at $49.99/mo. This is significantly less than the average starting price for internet in Fulton, $61.66.

No matter where you live, your address is likely serviceable for satellite internet from providers such as HughesNet and Viasat. You will probably also have the option of at least one cable provider, such as Cox, Spectrum and Xfinity, and DSL providers such as Frontier and Verizon. Roughly a third of households will be eligible for fiber internet from AT&T, CenturyLink, Windstream or other providers.

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.

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.
