Las Vegas in Nevada
Las Vegas has a long provider list and a short list of wires. 12 companies report fixed service on the ground, yet Cox is the only wired provider offering 100/20 Mbps at 60.5% of the city's homes and businesses. Gigabit service is reported almost everywhere, mostly over Cox cable, while fiber has more than doubled since 2022, to 44.8%1.
A long provider list, three wired networks
The FCC list for Las Vegas is longer than the choice at most addresses. As of June 30, 2026 (FCC revision of November 10, 2026), 12 providers report fixed service on the ground somewhere in the city's 196,660 homes and businesses. Only 51 of them run wires, and three of those account for nearly all wired coverage: Cox with cable and fiber, AT&T with fiber, and CenturyLink with DSL over copper telephone lines.

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.
Read the top of the table with care. The company listed above Cox, isp.net, is a local fixed wireless operator using unlicensed spectrum, and it reports service at 100.0% of locations in the city, for homes and businesses alike, at up to 500 Mbps1 down.
Each share in the table is the share of locations where a company says it could install service within ten business days. It is self-reported, anyone can challenge it on the FCC map, and it says nothing about prices.
A gigabit city on paper, with slower uploads
Las Vegas sits at the very top of one national measure. Gigabit service in the FCC's 1,000/100 tier (1 Gbps down, 100 Mbps up) is reported at 96.8% of locations, a share that is tied for 90th highest among the 343 cities of 100,000 or more. In June 2022 it was 0.1%2. The rise of 96.8 percentage points is tied for 11th highest among the same cities, and only 21 locations in the city lack a terrestrial 100/20 offer of some kind.

| United States | 2.4% | 1.6% | 1.8% | 1.4% | 0.9% | 31.0% | 61.0% |
The FCC's Nevada cable files show where most of that jump came from. In 2022 Cox filed its Clark County cable service at 1 Gbps down and 35 Mbps up, just under the tier; in 2026 it files most of it at 2 Gbps down and 100 Mbps up. No new network was needed for the change, only a faster advertised upload on the existing one. Wired service with uploads of at least 100 Mbps went from 21.3%2 of locations to 96.8%1.

| Nevada | 92.6% |

One caveat applies. On most of Cox's cable network the advertised upload is a small fraction of the download; among wired services, matching speeds in both directions come from fiber. All of these are advertised maximums reported by providers, not measured speeds.
Cox alone at most addresses
Speed is not the same as choice. Wired service of 100/20 Mbps or more is reported at 97.4% of locations, and at 60.8% exactly one wired provider offers it, the 39th highest share among large cities. Almost all of that single-wire territory is Cox's: it is the only wired 100/20 provider at 60.5% of locations. Two or more wired choices are reported at 36.5%, close to Nevada's 34.9% and well short of the US figure of 55.6%1.
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.

| Las Vegas | 2.7% | 60.8% | 35.8% | 0.8% |
| Nevada | 6.5% | 58.5% | 34.6% | 0.3% |
| United States | 7.8% | 36.6% | 44.6% | 11.1% |
CenturyLink's copper does little to change that count. DSL is reported at 56.7% of locations, but CenturyLink's fastest advertised download is 140 Mbps and it offers 100/20 Mbps at only 3.0%1. Where a second wired option exists, it is usually fiber.
Counting fixed wireless gives a different answer. Three or more providers of any kind on the ground offer 100/20 Mbps at 66.1% of locations, a share that is 130th highest1 among large cities, because the unlicensed wireless claim above covers the whole city. The wired count is the better guide to what most households can switch between.
The same pattern across the valley
Henderson and North Las Vegas look much like Las Vegas in the FCC data: fiber at 44.9% in Henderson and 44.1% in North Las Vegas, with a single wired 100/20 option at most locations in each. Northern Nevada differs. In Reno and Sparks the provider with the widest reported coverage is Spectrum, AT&T reports fiber at 52.1% and 60.9% of locations, and the single-wire share drops to 41.6% and 32.2%1.
| Area | One wired choice | Two or more wired choices | Fiber available | Gigabit (1,000/100) |

Clark County, which contains all three valley cities, has fiber at 43.5%1 of locations; the Nevada page compares its counties.
Fiber: a new filer as much as new construction
Fiber is reported at 44.8% of Las Vegas locations, up from 21.4%2 on June 30, 2022. Nevada as a whole is at 44.7%. Among large cities the median is 74.0%, and Las Vegas ranks tied for 77th lowest1.
- AT&T reports fiber at 33.8% of locations, with advertised downloads of up to 8 Gbps. In the FCC files most of these records carry the Quantum Fiber brand. AT&T reported no Las Vegas service in June 2022; at that date the Quantum Fiber records were filed by CenturyLink. Part of AT&T's growth since then is a change of filer for an existing network, not new construction.
- Cox reports fiber at 14.4% of locations and cable across most of the rest of its footprint.
- Google Fiber reports fiber at 0.9%, advertised at up to 8 Gbps1.

| Two or more wired choices | 22.9% | 35.2% | 36.5% | 13.7 pts |
Cable's share fell from 97.2% to 82.6% over the same four years, and DSL from 67.8% to 56.7%. Cox's total reach did not shrink: the locations it now files as fiber are no longer counted as cable. Meanwhile the share of locations with two or more wired choices at 100/20 Mbps rose from 22.9%2 to 36.5%1.
These fiber networks rarely overlap. Two or more fiber providers are reported at 4.3%1 of locations, down from 9.6%3 in the December 31, 2025 release; filings are revised between releases, so a single half-year move is weak evidence of a change on the ground. Whether one building has fiber is an address question, and the FCC map answers it.
5G and other wireless service
Fixed wireless of some kind is reported at 100.0% of Las Vegas locations, at very different speeds. Licensed fixed wireless, which includes 5G home internet, is reported at 91.1%1 of locations:
- T-Mobile reports home internet at 80.4% of locations, with a fastest advertised download of 100 Mbps and 100/20 Mbps at 9.9%.
- Verizon reports 60.4%, with 100/20 Mbps at 34.6%1.
- AT&T also reports fixed wireless home internet across a large part of the city, at lower advertised speeds than its fiber.
Among the unlicensed operators, WeLink Communications files residential service at 13.5% of locations with symmetrical speeds of up to 2 Gbps, and Rise Broadband reports 39.1%, at 100/20 Mbps for only 2.9%1.

| Licensed fixed wireless (incl. 5G home) | 91.1% | 89.9% |
| Unlicensed fixed wireless | 100.0% | 96.3% |
Fixed wireless shares a tower's capacity among everyone it serves, so carriers decide sign-ups address by address; the FCC figures show where they report service as available. The city has 5,212 locations (2.7%1) where fixed wireless is the only option at 100/20 Mbps, and none that depend on satellite alone. More on the technology on the 5G home internet page.
What households subscribe to
The FCC counts 196,6601 broadband serviceable locations in Las Vegas, while the Census Bureau estimates 252,555 households (margin of error ±6,9764). The gap is expected: the FCC counts an apartment building as one location, however many units it holds. Every percentage above is a share of locations.
The Census Bureau's 2025 American Community Survey asks households what they actually subscribe to. 78.3% of Las Vegas households had cable, fiber or DSL (margin of error ±2.2 percentage points), 14.1% relied only on a cellular data plan (margin of error ±1.9 percentage points), and 3.8% had no internet subscription (margin of error ±0.6 percentage points4). In the 2019 survey, the no-subscription share was 19.5%5, a drop far larger than the margins of error on either estimate.
| Measure | Las Vegas | Nevada | United States | Rank among largest cities |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Households subscribing to cable, fiber or DSL | 78.3% ±2.2 | 77.4% | – | tied 194th of 340 |
| Households relying only on a cellular data plan | 14.1% ±1.9 | 12.4% | – | tied 115th of 340 |

Checking one address in Las Vegas
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.
