Best internet plan for you

What’s the best internet provider? Finding the answer is all about balancing the speed you need with the price you prefer. That’s why comparing all the Arkansas internet options near you is important before signing up for service. Ensure you get a great value plan by assessing your household’s online activities and number of Wi-Fi devices to get an idea of the speed tier that will be the best fit.

Most average-use homes, such as those streaming and browsing, can be happy with about 100 to 500 Mbps. Heavier-use households, like those with gamers, remote workers or 20+ devices, should consider multi-gig plans of 1 GB or more. Remember, streaming live TV, including sports games like the Arkansas Razorbacks football, baseball or basketball, will be easier with a faster internet speed on a cable or fiber connection. Meanwhile, minimal-use homes that check email and surf the web can easily get by with 100 Mbps or less.

• Light internet use

  1 to 2 devices: 5 to 20 Mbps

  2 to 4 devices: 20 to 40 Mbps

  5 to 10 devices: 50 to 100 Mbps

• Moderate internet use

  1 to 2 devices: 5 to 20 Mbps

  2 to 4 devices: 20 to 40 Mbps

  5 to 10 devices: 75 to 200 Mbps

• High internet use

  1 to 2 devices: 100 to 200 Mbps

  2 to 4 devices: 200 to 300 Mbps

  5 to 10 devices: 400 to 500 Mbps

There are several top internet providers in Arkansas that offer plans that meet both budget and speed needs. Brightspeed has the cheapest Arkansas internet plan at $29.99/mo.
