T-Mobile coverage falls short in rural areas. Its High-speed internet is available in most of the eastern parts of the US, but towards the middle of the country, large gaps begin to pop up, especially around the west coast.

• 5G Speeds: Upload speeds may reach 50mb/s, and download speeds may hit 450mb/s.

Verizon has low 3G coverage but high 4G LTE coverage, providing rural internet and high-speed internet to over 70% of the country. However, Alaska, West Virginia, Montana, and Nevada have spotty Verizon coverage.

SATELLITE INTERNET PROVIDERS

ViaSat

Viasat provides high-speed internet via satellite broadband to areas mobile service providers cannot reach; It covers around 308.5 million people in the US alone. Areas that enjoy the best coverage include California, Texas, and New York. However, it is available in every state, making it the 2nd largest satellite provider in the US.

Viasat offers high-speed internet connections of about 100mb/s across 31 states, especially around rural areas and even areas in Alaska and Hawaii.  Viasat is pricier and slower than regular internet connections, and users are bound to experience rural internet from time to time.

HughesNet

HughesNet provided rural internet to over 60% of rural subscribers in 2017. With over 1.3 million users in the country, HughesNet has download speeds of 25mb/s and upload speeds of 3mb/s.

It is available to anyone, anywhere in the country. Even though its speeds may be likened to rural internet, HughesNet delivers uniform speed to all its users.
