How We Evaluate Cheap Internet Providers

While narrowing down cheap internet providers, we don’t just consider promotional pricing. Our experts carefully inspect broadband labels, run speed tests, check for ongoing deals, and verify zip-level availability. We weigh the most important factors – from price to coverage – so that our picks are truly affordable and practical:

Speed & Pricing

We compare typical download and upload speeds against monthly pricing to determine true cost-to-performance efficiency.

Value-Added Features

We factor in extra perks like free equipment, waived data caps, price lock guarantees, and premium support when evaluating cheap internet.

Coverage

We recommend affordable internet providers for major connection types (fiber/cable/5G/satellite) with better availability.

Find the Cheapest Internet Plans by Price

According to the U.S. News ISP Cost and Speed Survey Report (2024), the average American household pays $89/month for internet, and nearly 4 in 10 have cut other expenses just to keep their service. For people on a budget, the internet bill usually has to stay within a set limit that works for their monthly finances.

Based on what students, renters, and low-income families can realistically afford, while still getting reliable service, we’ve identified two key budget tiers:

This below-the-national-average limit works well for a modest budget while still offering enough speed for work, study, and streaming.

How to Choose the ‘Right’ Cheap Internet Plan

When searching for the best, most affordable internet for your home, keep these key factors and money-saving hacks in mind:

The more you stream, work from home, or game, the more speed you’ll need.

Light use: 25–100 Mbps is enough for browsing or email
Moderate to heavy use: 200+ Mbps is better for streaming, Zoom calls, or multiple users

Run a Free Speed Test Now!

Some internet providers limit how much data you can use monthly.

If you have high usage, choose a plan with no data caps.
Why it matters: Overage data fees can be steep and add up fast

See Unlimited-Data Value Options

Decide what matters more: flexibility to switch anytime or a discounted term.

No-contract plans offer flexibility.
Contract plans may offer lower intro pricing, but read the terms.

Frequently Asked Questions

What happened to the ACP discount? Are there still low-income options?

What happened to the ACP discount? Are there still low-income options? The federal Affordable Connectivity Program ended on June 1, 2024. There are still other options like exclusive low-income plans from some ISPs (e.g., Spectrum Internet Assist), and the Lifeline program for qualifying households.

What is the best affordable internet speed for my home?

The best affordable internet speed for your home depends on how you use the internet and how many people or devices are connected.

For basic browsing or email: 25–50 Mbps is often enough.
For HD streaming, video calls, or remote work: 100–300 Mbps is a good choice.
For families or heavy use: 500 Mbps or higher ensures smoother performance.

We’ve categorized plans based on budget, speed, and user needs, whether you’re browsing, streaming, or working from home.

Do cheap internet plans require a contract?

Many low-cost providers offer no-contract plans, while others may lock in lower pricing through short-term contracts. Always review the terms before signing up.

What’s the best way to keep an internet plan cheap over time?

The two best ways to keep internet cheap over time are to pick a plan with a clear price-lock (ideally multi-year) and to use your own cable modem to avoid monthly equipment fees. Also, verify details on the Broadband Facts label before you enroll.
