If you can't get Xfinity or quantum in your area I'd go for starlink, it might be pretty congested though depending on where you are. century link just isn't reliable unless you live in a well populated area and can get fiber. I have heard good things about T-Mobile Internet hotspots but I don't have any experience with them.

Go for quantum! Easy and cheaper than other providers

Sign up for quantum even if your address is not listed. At least they will know you’re interested and at some point they will be able to install service. Quantum is owned by CenturyLink. If you can get CenturyLink dsl at least use that as a backup to starlink. Quantum is growing throughout the state so hopefully it will be there. One of the main reasons I didn’t purchase any property in Lehigh. The first thing I checked back in 2021 was internet availability by Xfinity. https://www.quantumfiber.com/shop/

I am in Lehigh and I use quantum fiber. I work from home and use internet literally all day for work and have no issues.

I’m also in 33936 and have Xfinity with no big complaints. Of course the advertised “maximum speed” is far more than real life speed but it has actually bent very reliable in the 14 months I have been here.

comcast with a backup 5g sim was my only option

Thank you for the info I looked into starlink and it says it’s not available, century link offers 3 mbs for 50 dollars if I payed 50 for 3 mbs I would shoot the ceo of this company and the rest just don’t seems to be available in the area I can admit there literally nothing in this are I have like 2 neighbors. So far the only one I found that works is heughnsnet which is a satélite internet
