Is Spectrum Internet Ultra worth it?
Going from the Spectrum Internet plan to Spectrum Internet Ultra gives you a significant speed boost for a relatively low monthly price increase. Introductory pricing for Spectrum Internet Ultra is only $20/mo. more than Spectrum Internet, but the max download speeds can be two to four times higher. Upload speeds will also double from 10 to 20 Mbps.
Spectrum Internet Ultra plans are $20 more per month than traditional Spectrum Internet plans. However, both plans will increase by $30 more per month after the promotional period of one year expires. Be prepared to pay more during your second year of service than you will be paying during your first.
Spectrum Internet Ultra gives you more speed for the money
Cost per Mbps is a good indicator of an internet plan’s value. To get cost per Mbps of an internet plan, divide the monthly cost by the max advertised download or upload speeds. For example, the Spectrum Internet Ultra plan has speeds up 400 Mbps starting at $69.99. When you divide the price, $69.99, by the speeds, 400 Mbps, you get an estimated cost per Mbps of $0.17.
