What is the best internet provider in Columbus?
CNET's broadband experts recommend AT&T Fiber as the best internet service provider in Columbus, Ohio. It's not hard to see why: the ISP has reasonable pricing, ranging from $55 to $245, as well as the fastest speeds in the area with 2 and 5 gigabits, respectively. However, its biggest pitfall is that its geographic reach isn't 100% -- so those not in the region will need to look elsewhere. But there are plenty of great alternatives, such as Spectrum, T-Mobile and Verizon, depending on which ISP is available at your location.
Customers looking for 5G internet are in luck: T-Mobile and Verizon offer it, with plans starting at $50 and dropping to $35 when bundled with a compatible phone plan. For a more affordable option, Breezeline Base costs $25 a month for a 100 Mbps connection.
