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, Viasat, Starlink) report service at nearly every location and are left out of the table.

Several of the smaller names need a careful read. ACD.net reports fiber at 4.2% of locations, with advertised downloads up to 10 Gbps; it reported no Lansing locations in June 2022. Mercury Fiber's 3.4%1 is licensed fixed wireless, not fiber, despite the name.

All figures are the providers' own filings with the FCC as of June 30, 2026 (revision of November 10, 2026), for the city limits as drawn for the 2020 Census. "Available" means a provider says it could install service within ten business days, and any filing can be challenged.

From one fast wire to three

The largest change in Lansing is in choice at a given address. In June 2022, 52.7% of the city's locations had exactly one wired provider offering 100/20 Mbps. By June 2026 the single-wire share had fallen to 11.4%. Over the same four years the share with three or more wired providers at that speed rose from 9.4%2 to 45.2% (49th highest among the 343 cities of 100,000 or more), against 13.8% for Michigan and 11.1%1 nationally.

Source: FCC, National Broadband Map, data as of June 30, 2026. Different wired providers (fiber, cable or DSL; FCC provider IDs) reporting 100 Mbps down and 20 Mbps up or more at the same location. Fixed wireless and satellite are not counted.

Two or more wired choices now reach 88.3% of locations. The rise since 2022, 41.4 percentage points, ranks tied for 39th highest among large cities. Where one fast wire remains, it is Xfinity's: it is the only wired provider at 100/20 Mbps at 11.3%1 of locations, while Metronet and AT&T are each the sole option almost nowhere. Detroit and Ann Arbor, in the chart, are still mostly two-wire or one-wire cities.

Fiber passes almost nine in ten locations

Fiber from at least one provider reaches 87.6% of Lansing's locations, up from 40.2%2 in June 2022. That is about double Michigan's 42.6% and above the national 62.6%. Michigan has the 6th lowest fiber share among the states, so the capital stands well apart from the state around it. Among large cities, Lansing's share is 98th highest1.

In June 2022 the fastest advertised download at 60.1% of Lansing's locations sat between 940 Mbps and 2 Gbps. By June 2026, 91.8% had an advertised top tier of 2 Gbps or more. Gigabit service with uploads of at least 100 Mbps (the FCC's 1,000/100 tier) rose from 40.2% to 91.8%, and wired service of 100/100 Mbps or more, with uploads as fast as downloads, from 40.2%2 to 91.8%1. These are the maximums providers advertise and report to the FCC, not measured speeds.

Fewer companies, larger networks

Coverage grew while the list of providers shrank. In June 2022, 7 wired providers and 32 fiber providers reported service somewhere in Lansing; as of June 2026 the counts are 5 and 31. The fiber gain came from a few large footprints, chiefly Metronet's, which reported fiber at fewer than half as many Lansing locations in June 2022 as it does now.

The build was largely complete before 2026. Fiber stood at 87.2% of locations in December 2025 and rose by 0.4 percentage points in the following six months. In Grand Rapids, where Metronet reports fiber at 49.1% of locations, fiber was still rising faster over the same period, from 77.5%3 to 81.6%1.

Copper retreat and fixed wireless

Copper has receded quickly. DSL was reported at 91.3% of locations in June 2022 and at 64.2% in June 2026, a fall of 27.2 percentage points; in Grand Rapids the drop was from 72.3%2 to 67.1%. AT&T's DSL and fixed wireless are advertised at up to 100 Mbps; it offers 100/20 Mbps at 63.8% of locations, against some service at 92.1%1.

Licensed fixed wireless, the category that includes 5G home internet, is reported at 95.5% of locations. T-Mobile covers 88.3% and offers 100/20 Mbps at 23.4%; Verizon covers 84.4%, with advertised downloads up to 300 Mbps, and offers 100/20 Mbps at 18.7%1. Verizon's Lansing footprint more than doubled after June 2022.

Lansing beside other Michigan cities and its size peers

Michigan's large cities split into two groups on wired choice. Three or more wired providers at 100/20 Mbps are rare in Detroit (0.0%) and Ann Arbor (0.1%) and common in Warren, Dearborn and Lansing. Grand Rapids, the other city with a large Metronet network, started from almost the same point as Lansing in June 2022 (3.0%2) and stands at 33.7% today. Lansing's rise, 35.9 percentage points1, is the largest among Michigan's large cities.

The few locations without a fast wire

Gaps are small and scattered. 138 locations have no wired provider at 100/20 Mbps; at 78 of them, fixed wireless is the only terrestrial service at that speed. 60 locations have no terrestrial service at 100/20 Mbps at all, 21 are unserved under the BEAD definition (no reliable terrestrial service at 25/3 Mbps), and 131 can get only satellite. The FCC National Broadband Map shows the providers reported at each address.

Fewer households without a subscription

In the Census Bureau's 2019 survey, 13.9% of Lansing households had no internet subscription (margin of error ±2.9 percentage points4). In the 2025 survey the share was 6.4% (±2.1 percentage points), a fall larger than both margins and close to Michigan's 6.3%5.

In the 2025 survey, 79.2% of households subscribed to cable, fiber or DSL (±2.8 percentage points) and 11.3% relied only on a cellular data plan (±2.5 percentage points5).

The survey counts households over a year, while the FCC counts locations on one date, and an apartment building is one location; that is why the city has 39,6231 locations in the FCC data and an estimated 49,4755 households. The FCC data contain no prices. Providers publish theirs on broadband facts labels, and Lifeline remains the federal discount for eligible low-income households.

Checking one address in Lansing

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.
