What is the best internet provider in Naperville?
Xfinity is CNET’s top choice for the best internet service provider in Naperville. We've picked it as the top option for most households in the area because it offers a ton of different plans and solid availability. Xfinity's plans start at $35 a month for 150Mbps and go up to $95 for the 2,000Mbps plan. If you're outside the coverage area of Xfinity, you can consider Astound, T-Mobile and Verizon 5G.
Looking for the cheapest internet plans in Naperville? Astound offers a $20 plan with speeds that go up to 300Mbps. However, it can come with hidden fees that could significantly increase your bill. If you want the fastest internet speeds in the area, AT&T Fiber has you covered with a 5,000Mbps plan that costs $245 per month, though it isn't available in every part of the area. If that is more speed than you need, we recommend looking at the 1,200Mbps and 2,000Mbps plans by Xfinity, which have better availability and should suffice for most users.
