EarthLink: Internet services

EarthLink offers fiber, satellite and DSL internet plans across the U.S.

EarthLink provider overview

EarthLink offers satellite, fiber, DSL and fixed wireless internet across the country.

EarthLink operates a bit differently than other internet providers. Instead of owning its own networks, it rents wired and wireless networks from providers like AT&T, CenturyLink, Frontier, T-Mobile and Viasat to deliver internet service to its customers. Because of this, EarthLink internet service is widely available across the U.S. since it uses multiple service footprints.

What we like

  • Wide coverage area

  • Speeds up to 5,000 Mbps, where available

Things to consider

  • Slightly higher costs than most ISPs
