RCN connection types
RCN primarily uses a cable internet network, but may also use a DSL or fiber optic network in select locations to offer gig-speeds. Depending on your location and which RCN internet plan you choose, your connection could include a cable, fiber optic or DSL connection, or a hybrid or multiple network types.
RCN cable
RCN cable internet is available to 98% of those in RCN service areas. Speeds range from 50 to 500 Mbps. Cable internet offers faster speeds than DSL, but speeds can slow at peak usage times.
RCN fiber optic
Fiber optic internet often supports the fastest, most reliable internet service, and is the foundation for RCN’s Gig Internet. Available to roughly 18% of serviceable areas, RCN fiber optic offers customers speeds up to 1,000 Mbps or 1 Gbps.
RCN DSL
Less than 5% of households in RCN-serviceable areas have access to their DSL service. As an older internet technology, DSL doesn’t deliver the speeds you’d get with cable or fiber optic internet, but may offer lower-priced internet plans.
How fast is RCN internet?
RCN internet speeds start at 10 Mbps and max out at up to 1,000 Mbps in most RCN service areas. When it comes to which RCN internet plan is right for you, “fast” internet to one household may not seem very fast to another. Consider the amount of users in your home and the activities you enjoy when selecting a RCN internet plan.
25 Mbps
Best for: 1-3 users who enjoy light browsing, streaming and downloading a few large files
100 Mbps
Best for: 1-3 users who enjoy moderate browsing, streaming in 4K and downloading large files quickly
500 Mbps
Best for: Multiple users who enjoy heavy browsing, gaming, streaming in 4K, downloading large files, hosting video chats and connecting smart home devices.
1,000 Mbps
Best for: Unlimited users who enjoy heavy browsing, gaming streaming in 4K, downloading large files quickly, hosting multi-user video chats and connecting smart home devices
