Best Internet Providers in Nebraska

Best Internet Providers in Nebraska
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

What is the best internet provider in Nebraska?

Great Plains Communications is the best internet service provider for many Nebraska homes due to its fast speeds and simple pricing over a 100% fiber-optic network throughout much of the state. Not everyone in Nebraska will be serviceable for GPC, however. Other ISPs such as Spectrum, CenturyLink and Kinetic, along with rural connections like fixed wireless and satellite internet, contribute to the state’s 100% broadband availability.

Along with availability, cost and speed are two of the most important considerations when comparing home internet providers. Look to Quantum Fiber for the cheapest internet plan in Nebraska starting at $30 a month for speeds up to 200Mbps. Allo Fiber has the fastest internet plan in Nebraska with speeds up to 2.3Gbps starting at $175, though availability is limited to select areas.

Our team considers speeds, pricing, customer service and overall value to recommend the best internet service in Nebraska across various categories. Our evaluation includes spot-checking local addresses for service availability. We also do a close read of providers’ terms and conditions and, when needed, will call ISPs to verify the details.

Our process has some limitations, though. Pricing and speed data are variable: Certain addresses may qualify for different service tiers, and monthly costs may vary, even within a city. The best way to identify your particular options is to plug your address into a provider’s website. 

Note that the prices, speed and other information listed above and in the provider cards below may differ from what we found in our research. The cards display the full range of a provider’s pricing and speed across the US, according to our database of plan information provided directly by ISPs, while the text is specific to what’s available in Nebraska. The prices referenced within this article’s text come from our research and include applicable discounts for setting up automatic payments each month — a standard industry offering. Other discounts and promotions might also be available for things like committing to a contract or bundling with a cellphone plan.

Best internet in Nebraska

Speed range

200-2,000 Mbps

Price range

$68-$160 per month

Our take – I’d almost always recommend a fiber internet connection when available and, in Nebraska, Great Plains Communications is your best chance of getting one. Speeds, pricing and service terms are on par with other leading fiber ISPs across the US.

Speed range

200-2,000 Mbps

Price range

$68-$160 per month

Speed range

100 – 1,000 Mbps

Price range

$30- $90 per month

Our take – Spectrum doesn’t offer cable internet service to the most Nebraska households — that’d be Cox, which has a large presence in the Omaha area — but it does have the best cable internet coverage in Nebraska. On top of that, Spectrum is one of CNET’s top choices for cable internet thanks to its plan selection and low fees.

Speed range

100 – 1,000 Mbps

Price range

$30- $90 per month

Our take – Wireless internet is a suitable choice for internet in rural areas, but I’d still prefer the reliability of a wired connection when it’s available. CenturyLink and fellow Lumen brand Quantum Fiber offer the greatest wired internet coverage in the state thanks to a large DSL and fiber-optic network.

Speed range

72 – 245 Mbps

Price range

$60 per month

Our take – Wired connections don’t reach everywhere, especially in Nebraska’s more rural locations. That’s where wireless internet comes in. T-Mobile has the best coverage and possibly the best value of any wireless home internet provider in Nebraska.

Speed range

72 – 245 Mbps

Price range

$60 per month

Price range

$50 – $150 per month

Our take – Around 10% of Nebraska households will have no other option than satellite internet for broadband speeds (defined as at least 25Mbps down and 3Mbps up). If your address falls into that category, I’d recommend Hughesnet simply because it’s the cheapest.

Rural internet options in Nebraska

It goes without saying that Nebraska has its share of rural areas — farms and ranches cover 92% of the state’s total land area. What’s the best way to get home internet in such remote areas? Aside from T-Mobile and HughesNet (our picks listed above for best rural internet and best satellite internet), here are some of the rural internet options you may encounter in Nebraska.

Kinetic: DSL internet like that of Windstream’s Kinetic run service using telephone lines, which are much more readily available in rural areas than cable or fiber connections. Kinetic internet starts at just $40 a month for speeds up to 100Mbps, though most locations will see slower speeds. 

Nextlink:A close second to T-Mobile in terms of wireless coverage in Nebraska, NextLink is available to many households in the eastern half of the state. Available speeds and pricing vary by location, but it’s possible to get speeds of 25 to 500Mbps starting at $50 to $140 a month.

Rise Broadband: Another wireless provider, Rise Broadband is available to around a quarter of Nebraska households, primarily in the southern and eastern parts of the state. Max speeds aren’t quite as fast as T-Mobile or NextLink (25 to 50Mbps), but the starting price isn’t bad at $45 a month and unlimited data is included.

Starlink: A fleet of low-orbiting satellites gives Starlink a speed and latency advantage over Hughesnet and Viasat, though the pricing is still sky-high. Expect an equipment cost of $599 to get started and an ongoing monthly rate of $90.

Viasat: Like Hughesnet, Viasat is available throughout all of Nebraska. Pricing is a bit higher, but you may be able to get faster speeds and a higher data allowance with the added cost.

Internet breakdown by city in Nebraska

It’s hard to cover the broadband options of an entire state and give individual cities the attention they deserve. That’s why we also compile lists of the best internet providers in cities across the US, including those in Nebraska. We tackle details such as internet connection types, max speeds, cheapest providers and more. If you don’t find the city you’re looking for below, check back later. We’re working to add more locations every week.

Cheap internet options in Nebraska

What you pay for home internet each month will depend on the available providers in your area and the plan you choose. Most Nebraska internet providers have a starting pricing of $50 or higher, though you may find cheaper plans from Quantum Fiber ($30), Kinetic ($40) and Rise Broadband ($45). Keep in mind that equipment rental, data caps (and overages) and other fees can add to the monthly cost of internet.

How to find internet deals in Nebraska

The best internet deals and the top promotions in Nebraska depend on which discounts are available during that time period. Most deals are short-lived, but we look frequently for the latest offers. 

Nebraska internet providers such as Great Plains Communications and HughesNet may offer lower introductory pricing for a limited time. Many, however, including Spectrum, Cox and CenturyLink, run the same standard pricing year-round. 

For a more extensive list of deals, check out our guide on the best internet deals. 

How fast is internet in Nebraska?

Recent Ookla speed test data shows Nebraska to have a median download speed of 197Mbps. There are many factors that can affect speed test data, however, such as the use of Wi-Fi, time of day, technology a provider uses and an internet plan’s max speeds. 

The internet speeds you can get will depend on the providers and available connection types in your area. Fiber internet often delivers the fastest speeds. Allo and Great Plains Communications are good examples of this as both providers offer speeds of 2Gbps or higher in select locations. Cable internet, like that of Spectrum and Cox, are typically decent options for download speeds up to 1Gbps but not much higher.

What’s a good internet speed?

Here’s an overview of the recommended minimum download speeds for various applications. Note that these are only guidelines — and that internet speed, service and performance vary by connection type, provider and address.

For more information, refer to our guide on how much internet speed you really need

0 to 5Mbps allows you to tackle the basics — browsing the internet, sending and receiving email, streaming low-quality video.5 to 40Mbps gives you higher-quality video streaming and videoconferencing.40 to 100Mbps should give one person sufficient bandwidth to satisfy the demands of modern telecommuting, video streaming and online gaming. 100 to 500Mbps allows one to two people to simultaneously engage in high-bandwidth activities like videoconferencing, streaming and online gaming. 500 to 1,000Mbps allows three or more people to engage in high-bandwidth activities at the same time.

How CNET chose the best internet providers in Nebraska

Internet service providers are numerous and regional. Unlike the latest smartphone, laptop, router or kitchen tool, it’s impractical to personally test every ISP in a given city. So what’s our approach? We start by researching the pricing, availability and speed information drawing on our own historical ISP data, the provider sites and mapping information from the Federal Communications Commission at FCC.gov.

But it doesn’t end there. We go to the FCC’s website to check our data and ensure we consider every ISP that provides service in an area. We also input local addresses on provider websites to find specific options for residents. We look at sources, including the American Customer Satisfaction Index and J.D. Power, to evaluate how happy customers are with an ISP’s service. ISP plans and prices are subject to frequent changes; all information provided is accurate as of publication. 

Once we have this localized information, we ask three main questions: 

Does the provider offer access to reasonably fast internet speeds? Do customers get decent value for what they’re paying? Are customers happy with their service? 

While the answer to those questions is often layered and complex, the providers who come closest to “yes” on all three are the ones we recommend. When selecting the cheapest internet service — the criteria are relatively simple. We look for the service package with the lowest monthly fee, though we also consider promotional rates and price per megabit. As for choosing the fastest internet service, we look at provider throughput. Most often, that means a fiber-optic service. That said, fiber availability may be limited to fewer addresses. 

To explore our process in more depth, visit our page explaining how we test ISPs.

Internet in Nebraska recap

The internet providers you can get and the speeds and pricing they offer can vary widely from one location to another in Nebraska. We considered availability, speeds, pricing, customer service and overall value to put together our list of recommended internet providers and plans.

Quantum Fiber is the cheapest internet option in Nebraska, offering up to 200Mbps starting at just $30 a month.
