Why choose Spectrum Internet?
Lisa Iscrupe Last updated: January 26, 2023
Spectrum is one of the three main internet service providers in New York City, along with Verizon and Optimum. Spectrum is a cable provider that covers about 64% of NYC for internet, TV, home phone and mobile services.
Things we like
No contracts or data caps – One of the most attractive aspects of Spectrum is that there are no data caps or contracts. This means that you will never be charged an overage fee or a cancellation fee.
Access to Spectrum hotspots – Spectrum allows up to 15 registered devices connect to Spectrum’s Wi-Fi hotspots throughout the country.
Free or cheap equipment – Spectrum has uniquely low equipment fees compared to other providers. Some equipment is even free.
Things to consider
Limited internet and TV plans – Spectrum only offers three internet plans and one TV plan.
No cheap internet plans – If you want slower speeds to save on costs, a different provider may be a better choice.
Limited availability in the Bronx – Spectrum is only available in three ZIP codes in the Bronx.
