For a long time, Spectrum has been the default internet provider in Zanesville. But over the past year, T-Mobile Home Internet has overtaken it as the best internet provider in Zanesville. You won’t have to deal with price increases, equipment fees or spotty customer service, and T-Mobile is now widely available in the city. If you’re looking for the highest speeds, Spectrum is still the fastest internet provider in Zanesville, topping out at download speeds of 1,000Mbps and upload speeds of 35Mbps. It’s still a decent option overall, but Spectrum has lower customer satisfaction scores than T-Mobile across the board. For rural homes that can’t access Spectrum or T-Mobile, satellite internet is usually the only option. Starlink is the best of these -- even with an upfront equipment cost of $499. The best internet deals and top promotions in Zanesville depend on what discounts are available during a given time. Most deals are short-lived, but we look frequently for the latest offers. Zanesville internet providers, such as T-Mobile Home Internet and Verizon 5G Home Internet, may offer lower introductory pricing or streaming add-ons for a limited time. Others, however, including Spectrum and Starlink, run the same standard pricing year-round. For a more extensive list of promos, check out our guide on the best internet deals. Most internet connection plans can now handle basic productivity and communication tasks. If you're looking for an internet plan that can accommodate videoconferencing, streaming video or gaming, you'll have a better experience with a more robust connection. Here's an overview of the recommended minimum download speeds for various applications, according to the FCC. 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. 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.
