Key takeaways
Best internet plan for you
Before choosing an internet plan, you need to determine the best internet speed to support your needs. Consider the number of connected devices in your household and the types of daily internet activities you participate in.
Some users only need their connections for light activities, like browsing or streaming on one device. Others may have multiple people gaming, streaming, working or learning from home simultaneously and need a faster plan to support these activities.
Most households in Minnesota can access plans between 300 and 1,000 Mbps, depending on the area. We’ve broken down three categories of internet users and the speeds you need based on the number of devices connected to your network.
-
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
If you’re a light internet user, you can likely get away with a provider’s cheapest plan since you don’t need much speed. Cheap Minnesota internet providers include Verizon 5G and Xfinity. If you need more speed to support your activities, consider fiber providers in Minnesota, such as Quantum Fiber and AT&T Fiber, or cable providers with high speeds like Xfinity.

How we review internet in Minnesota
Our methodology
We evaluate broadband providers in four categories: affordability, performance, value and customer satisfaction. Each category contains multiple sub-factors, all of which are weighted differently to impact the provider’s overall score.
For each sub-factor, we score all providers on a continuous scale of one to five, relative to the industry as a whole. Because the average download speed in America is currently 290 Mbps, for example, we assigned all plans with download speeds between 100 and 299 Mbps a score between three and four. Xfinity’s 200 Mbps plan received a 3.50 score for download speed, while Spectrum’s 500 Mbps plan got a 3.71.
We only considered standardized data points in our scoring system. More abstract data like consistency of service and brand reputation is still part of our analysis, but we opted to let our writers address them in the context of each review.
Minnesota internet statistics
- Median Minnesota download speed: 292.58 Mbps

I live in Minneapolis and signed up after being sold Quantum Fiber by a door to door rep. The service speed, up and down, to the house was as promised, but there have been frequent outages and my wireless connections drop all the time and only offer 500-200 mbps download speeds. The equipment installed is terrible, not configured with the latest security protocols, and is barely useable beyond one room, where the WiFi pod is located. Customer service and support is truly terrible. I have contacted them multiple times over two months, was outright lied to, and was not even able to get a straight answer about when I could get another pod to see if it would help the issues. I finally gave up and cancelled since Xfinity is now offering comparable pricing for comparable download speeds but not upload, of course. I will be sticking with Xfinity until USI is available in my neighborhood.

I’ve had several internet/cable providers over the past 25 years and Spectrum is BY FAR THE WORST! The internet is horribly slow and they do not have fiber optics. I work from home and lost out on plenty of money due to the unreliable speed. When I cancelled my internet service the customer service rep said he could save me some money on my cable in order to keep my business. I agreed to this assuming it was their tactic to keeping business, but he did not mention that he would be removing my sports packages in order to do so. Total bait and switch approach and completely unethical! I’ve always paid for the highest level cable package with full channels, and I was essentially lied to considering he simply didn’t feel the need to bring up he would be removing channels in order for me to save money. Trust me, you’re better off using Comcast, Dish, HBCI, or any other provider you can find. It will be well worth it not having to deal with the headaches of slow internet and poor overall service!

Minnesota internet assistance
If you’re searching for a low-cost internet plan in Minnesota, eligible customers can access affordable options through Lifeline and individual provider programs. Eligibility generally depends on your income and participation in a government assistance program.
The future of internet in Minnesota
Minnesota is set to receive a massive chunk of funding — $652 million — from the Broadband Equity, Access and Deployment (BEAD) Program. The funding will be allocated to subgrantees selected by the state, and the first round of broadband infrastructure projects will focus on fiber providers, with a second round focusing on other technologies. It may be some time before Minnesotans can notice the impact of this historic funding, but the state is well on its way to connecting almost 90,000 homes and businesses with high-speed internet service.
