What we like

  • Widespread availability – Viasat is available anywhere in the U.S. If you’re living in an area that’s been deemed unserviceable by other providers, odds are that Viasat is your saving grace.

  • Fast speeds for rural areas – With features like download speeds up to 150 Mbps (where available) and no data caps or contracts, Viasat might be the rural internet solution you’ve been looking for.

  • Bundle discounts – Viasat offers a discount on its home phone service if you pair it with internet.

Things to consider

  • Data reprioritization after limit While Viasat internet technically offers unlimited data, they do enforce a tiered system of “data thresholds.” Essentially, once you exceed your plan’s threshold, your internet speed will be throttled, i.e. slowed down significantly, until your next billing cycle begins.

  • Limited speed offering – Although Viasat offers speeds up to 150 Mbps, your speeds will likely be below that.

  • Limited plan offerings – Viasat only has one internet plan available and does not offer its own TV service.
