Reno Residential Internet Coverage

Reno, the biggest tourist city in Nevada after Las Vegas, has a few internet service providers that offer the city DSL, cable, satellite, and fiber.

Fiber is still building out in Reno through cable provider AT&T, so high-speed fiber may soon become widely available throughout the city. The DSL network of AT&T reaches considerably further, covering almost 100% of Reno. The map reaches as far north as North Valleys, with extending to the northwest and southwest communities of Reno. In addition, South Reno and East Reno are also served by AT&T DSL. The central tourist areas of Reno are served by AT&T, giving tourists and locals reliable coverage.

A select few neighborhoods are covered by RTI, a DSL provider in the Reno area. RTI currently offers DSL service to a small part of the North Valleys neighborhood.

Last, Charter is currently offering cable to the entirety of Reno, and is up there with AT&T as the two largest providers.

the monthly price is too high. The connection is slow and often the Internet service is dropped. If they would stop some of the mailings they do they might be able to give customers a break on the price.

Speed and service are pretty good. But prices are very misleading. First, the requisite bundling is very annoying. Second, the advertised price is not the actual price (added taxes, etc.). Third, once you accept the bundling, watch out for surprise price jacking. Neither the television ad nor the representative said that the advertised price was 'promotional' or that it would jump 30%+ at 12 months. Despite calling within 5 minutes after receiving a text notice of the bill, they will not rescind the overcharge. Nor will canceling the service even though the billing is for the NEXT 30 days, not the prior. Regulations should be in place to stop these abuses by internet service providers.

Charter is ok... Pricing is great during the promotional period then they rack up charges for everything. Everyone gets mbps double for no charge which is great, but they do not have enough boxes to spread the internet out through apartment complexes. Reno has more apartments then I have every experienced and Charter is no good for speed in apartments.
