#INTERNET SPEED TEST FRONTIER DOWNLOAD#
With Frontier DSL, download speeds are typically in the double digits, topping out at about 100Mbps. That brings us to plans - here's a look at what both companies have to offer: Frontier Internet plansĭownload speeds reach as high as 5 gigabits per second with Frontier if you're eligible for fiber service, with matching or near-matching upload speeds, too. With cable internet, download speeds will typically come in at a few hundred Mbps, though Spectrum's fastest plans can go as high as 940Mbps. The infrastructure it acquired after purchasing Time Warner Cable in 2016 plays a big role there. In fact, Charter Spectrum is the nation's second-largest cable provider. Instead, the company gets 99% of Spectrum users online via coaxial cable connection. Meanwhile, Charter only offers Spectrum fiber service to less than 1% of its customer base, and it doesn't offer DSL service at all. The rest of Frontier's customers get online with a much slower, copper-based DSL connection.
Fiber is often the fastest option, but it's only available in neighborhoods equipped with ground-laid fiber-optic cable, and rollouts like those are slow going.įrontier offers fiber internet in 15 states, covering about one-third of the company's customers, as per the Federal Communications Commission. There are multiple methods internet providers can use to deliver internet connectivity to people's homes. How do Frontier and Spectrum match up on technology and speeds?
