About Our Internet Data

Enter your zip code for the most accurate results.


It’s our mission to give you all the useful data we can on Internet and TV service providers so you can make your own decision.

Please note that DecisionData does have a paid financial relationship with some of the providers listed. This does not impact which providers are shown, as we show all providers we have data for.

We recommend starting with the providers at the top of the list, as these are the providers that are more likely to have coverage at your home or business.

The majority of our data comes from the FCC. We’ve also gathered real-world usage data and combined it. As with any large database, there are plenty of errors. We’ve tried to fix provider errors, but there are probably some we’ve missed. Let us know if you see any mistakes!

This data has been particularly hard to gather and compile, so we hope it’s useful. If you find it helpful in finding Internet providers near you, please share it on Facebook or Twitter.
