Fort Collins in Colorado
Fort Collins is served by two wires that each reach most of the city: Xfinity's cable network and Connexion, a fiber network owned by the city itself.

Who reports service in Fort Collins
As of June 30, 2026 (FCC revision of November 10, 2026), Xfinity reports service at 98.9% of the 49,991 homes and businesses inside Fort Collins city limits, and Fort Collins Connexion at 82.7%1. No other wired company comes close to either. The rest of the list is a mix of DSL, a smaller fiber footprint from AT&T, and fixed wireless operators advertising a wide range of speeds.

Source: FCC, National Broadband Map, data as of June 30, 2026. Share of the area's broadband serviceable locations where the provider reports service as of June 30, 2026. "Only wired option" is the share of locations where it is the single wired provider at 100/20 Mbps. Provider-reported and challengeable; speeds are advertised maximums, not measured; no prices. Satellite providers (HughesNet, Starlink, Viasat) report service at nearly every location and are left out of the table.
Each share is the part of the city's locations where a company tells the FCC it can install service within ten business days. It is the provider's own report, it can be challenged on the FCC map, and it carries no price: the FCC does not collect prices. Satellite service is reported at nearly every location and is left out of the provider counts here.
A fiber network owned by the city
Connexion is not a private company. It is a broadband utility owned and operated by the City of Fort Collins, and everything it reports in the city is fiber: 82.7% of locations, with downloads advertised up to 10 Gbps1.
Because Connexion and Xfinity overlap almost everywhere Connexion has built, two wired choices are the normal case. At 84.5% of locations two or more wired providers offer 100/20 Mbps, against 57.0% for Colorado. Connexion is the only such wire at just 0.2%1 of locations.
Fiber from any provider covers 83.5% of the city, the 124th highest share among the 343 cities of 100,000 or more and above the large-city median of 74.0%1.

The part of the city without Connexion
At 14.5% of locations, Xfinity is the only wired provider offering 100/20 Mbps, close to the whole single-wire share of 14.7%. That share was 19.5%2 in June 2022: the single-wire part of the city has shrunk, but it has not closed. Between December 31, 2025 and June 30, 2026 the city's fiber share moved slightly down, by 0.3 percentage points, from 83.8%3 to 83.5%1. Shares, not counts, are compared here because the FCC's list of locations also changes between releases.
In all, 411 locations have no wired provider at 100/20 Mbps. Of these, 379 reach that speed only through fixed wireless, a share of 0.8% that ranks tied for 102nd highest among large cities. 32 locations have no ground-based provider at 100/20 Mbps at all, and 41 depend on satellite alone. The FCC map's address search shows which group a particular home is in.
Gigabit uploads now reach almost every address
For wired service, the largest change since 2022 is in upload speeds, not in coverage. Service of 1,000/100 Mbps, a gigabit download with at least 100 Mbps up, was advertised at 78.7% of locations in June 2022 and at 98.1% in June 2026, against 79.4% statewide and 72.3% nationally. Symmetrical 100/100 Mbps service went from 79.4%2 to 98.2%1.

The FCC's count of locations is updated with each release, so shares are compared rather than counts.

| Measure | June 30, 2022 | December 31, 2025 | June 30, 2026 | Change (points) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fiber available | 79.4% | 83.8% | 83.5% | 4.1 pts |
| Gigabit (1,000/100) | 78.7% | 97.3% | 98.1% | 19.5 pts |
| Wired 100/100 Mbps | 79.4% | 97.4% | 98.2% | 18.7 pts |
Fiber grew far less over the same years, by 4.1 percentage points. Both upload measures now exceed the fiber share, so most of the difference is reported on cable: Xfinity reports fiber at only 0.5% of locations and cable at nearly all the rest. The top advertised tier moved as well. In June 2022 the fastest download at 99.1%2 of locations was about 1 Gbps; in June 2026, at 98.1%1 it is 2 Gbps or more. These are advertised maximums reported by the providers, not measured speeds.
AT&T adds a second fiber network in places
AT&T reported no service in Fort Collins in June 2022. It now reports 52.3% of locations, mostly fixed wireless, with fiber at 21.1% and downloads advertised up to 8 Gbps. Where that fiber overlaps Connexion, a home has two or more fiber networks: 20.9%1 of locations, up from 6.0%2 in 2022 and 14.3%3 six months earlier. The Denver page describes how AT&T's Colorado filings came to include fiber that CenturyLink reported, under the Quantum Fiber brand, in earlier releases.
Three or more wired providers at 100/20 Mbps now serve 30.1% of locations, up from 16.5%2 in June 2022. CenturyLink remains in the count mainly through DSL, reported at 74.8% of locations (a DSL share tied for 52nd highest among large cities), with 100/20 Mbps at only 10.6%1.
Fixed wireless, local and national
Fixed wireless is reported almost everywhere, from both licensed and unlicensed networks. Rise Broadband reports unlicensed fixed wireless at 82.3% of locations, with 100/20 Mbps at 19.4%. Vistabeam, absent from the June 2022 data, reports 53.5%, all at 100/20 Mbps or more, advertising up to 500 Mbps. The mobile carriers' home internet is reported by T-Mobile at 73.0% and Verizon at 67.9%, each with 100/20 Mbps at about a quarter of locations. Taken together, licensed fixed wireless at 100/20 Mbps or more is reported at 68.3% of locations, against 5.9%2 in June 2022. Core Fiber, despite its name, reports only fixed wireless in the city, at 8.5%1.
| Measure | Fort Collins | Colorado | United States | Rank among largest cities |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Licensed fixed wireless | 96.6% | 91.4% | 87.3% | 104th of 343 |
| Unlicensed fixed wireless | 85.1% | 56.2% | 19.7% | 41st of 343 |

Wireless capacity is shared on each tower sector, so operators can limit sign-ups at a given address even where they report service.
Fort Collins among Front Range cities
Longmont, to the south, has a similar shape: one fiber network, NextLight, reports fiber at 99.9%1 of its locations. In Denver, Colorado Springs and Aurora, fiber comes from several companies with partly overlapping footprints. The chart compares wired choice at 100/20 Mbps in Fort Collins and Longmont; the table puts the larger Front Range cities side by side on the same FCC release.

Households online
The Census Bureau's 2025 survey describes subscriptions rather than availability. In Fort Collins, 86.1% of households subscribed to cable, fiber or DSL (margin of error ±2.0 percentage points), and 7.6% relied only on a cellular data plan (±1.9 percentage points), a point estimate tied for 19th lowest among large cities. Households with no internet access of any kind were 0.2%4. The survey counts households over a year and the FCC counts locations on one date, so the two show direction, not an exact gap.
Across Larimer County, fiber reaches 71.8%1 of locations; the Colorado page maps it beside every other county.

Checking one address in Fort Collins
The figures on this page describe the whole area. Which providers report service at a single home or apartment is shown only on the FCC's own map: search the address at broadbandmap.fcc.gov. If a provider is listed there but cannot actually connect you within ten business days, or the location is missing or misplaced, the map has a button to file a challenge; providers must respond, and corrections flow into later releases. Prices and plans are not part of the FCC data: each provider must show them on its broadband facts label at the point of sale.
