Spectrum Internet® plan comparison

Spectrum is widely available and their plans have some unique advantages, but they aren’t for everyone. Spectrum offers up to two internet plans, which you’ll find in our table below. All Spectrum plans come with a free modem, unlimited data and no contract requirements — perks you may not find with most internet providers.

Unless you bundle your Spectrum services, your Spectrum Internet® price may go up after the first year, so you could end up paying more than you’re expecting when you sign up. That said, you will get fast and reliable speeds for those high prices.

Customers can also access thousands of free public Spectrum WiFi hotspots nationwide. For new customers looking to switch to Spectrum in the middle of their current internet contract, Spectrum will provide up to $500** to subsidize any early termination fees you may face.

Spectrum Internet® Premier (500 Mbps) is best for midsize households, and Spectrum Internet® Gig is best for heavy gaming and streaming. Spectrum’s fastest plan is ideal for larger households with many users connecting at once.

• Installation fees: You’ll pay up to $30.00 for self-installation on all Spectrum Internet® plans. In some areas, professional installation is available at a cost of up to $65.00. To avoid the higher fee, learn how to self-install Spectrum Internet®.
• Data caps: None of Spectrum’s plans have data caps, so you won’t have to worry about limiting your internet usage.
• Contracts: There are no contracts on any Spectrum Internet® plans, so you won’t get hit with early termination fees if you decide to cancel.

Spectrum customer reviews

The American Customer Satisfaction Index (ACSI) gave Spectrum a score of 68/100 in 2024, the same as last year’s score. This puts them in the middle of the pack, behind Cox, Verizon, T-Mobile and AT&T.

J.D. Power also gave Spectrum Internet® average satisfaction ratings. Their rankings fared best in the South region, where they scored relatively high marks for Performance and Reliability, Customer Service and Overall Satisfaction, ranking behind only AT&T and Xfinity.

In general, the main thing you should know about Spectrum centers around billing. Many customers don’t expect a price increase after their offer term expires. If you’re not aware of these fees going in, your bill could end up being almost twice as much as you expected.

Spectrum Internet® FAQs

Who owns Spectrum?

Charter Communications purchased Spectrum in 2016.

How can I reduce my Spectrum bill?

One way to lower your Spectrum Internet® bill may be to use your own router, which can save you $10 or more off your monthly bill. You can also contact Spectrum customer service to see if any discounts are available, or consider these ways to lower your monthly internet bill.

Why is my Spectrum Internet® slow?

Using a Wi-Fi connection and connecting multiple devices can result in slower speeds, and cable internet upload speeds are generally slower than other technology types.
