Wyoming internet, new fiber in the towns and radio links on the range
Fiber is available at 56.9% of the 262,480 homes and businesses the FCC counts in Wyoming, and wired broadband of at least 100/20 Mbps at 74.9%. 42.2% of locations have a choice of two or more wired providers at that speed; at 32.7% there is only one.1
FCC National Broadband Map, availability as of June 30, 2026 (data revised November 10, 2026), as reported by providers.
West region, Mountain division
Few states added fiber as fast as Wyoming: it was reported at 15.7%2 of the state's homes and businesses in June 2022 and at 56.9% four years later. Outside the towns the picture is different. At 15.5%1 of locations the only way to get 100/20 Mbps is a fixed wireless link, the largest such share of any state.
Visionary, CenturyLink, Spectrum and the 5G carriers
On the FCC's National Broadband Map, with data as of June 30, 2026 (revision of November 10, 2026), Wyoming has 262,480 broadband serviceable locations: houses, apartment buildings, ranches and small businesses. 32 companies report terrestrial internet at some of them, and 191 of those use a wire. A location counts as available when the provider says it could connect it within ten business days for a standard installation; anyone can challenge a listing that is wrong.
The provider with the widest reach is a regional one. Visionary Broadband reports service at 64.0% of the state's locations and offers 100/20 Mbps or more at 62.6%, mostly over fixed wireless; its fiber covers 18.6%. CenturyLink follows at 59.8%, almost entirely over DSL: it offers 100/20 at only 1.7%. Spectrum, the largest cable network, reports service at 48.9%. Verizon and T-Mobile home internet are reported at 53.1% and 47.5%, and AT&T fixed wireless at 21.9%. Bluepeak, which reports only fiber in Wyoming, covers 55,797 locations, 21.3%1 of the state.

Fiber since 2022: a steep climb, most of it recent
Fiber was reported at 15.7%2 of Wyoming's locations in June 2022. By June 2026 it reached 56.9%, a rise of 41.3 percentage points that ranks 3rd highest among the states, behind Maine and Hawaii; nationally the share rose by 25.4 percentage points. Much of it is recent. Between December 2025 and June 2026 alone fiber gained 9.0 percentage points, the largest six-month gain of any state, against 2.7 percentage points nationally. Wyoming is still below the national share of 62.6%, ranking 15th lowest1.

Symmetrical service moved with it. Wired 100/100 Mbps, the same speed up as down, went from 16.2% to 57.2% of locations, and gigabit service (1,000/100) from 18.2% to 69.5%. The share of locations whose fastest advertised download is 2 Gbps or more went from 1.3%2 to 40.9%; the national share is 61.0%1.
Three of the four counties with the most locations are among the biggest gainers. In Natrona County, around Casper, the fiber share rose by 71.2 percentage points to 74.1%. Campbell County, around Gillette, rose by 71.0 percentage points to 72.2%, and Laramie County, around Cheyenne, by 54.3 percentage points to 68.4%. In 5 counties the gain was 50 percentage points or more. At the other end, Niobrara County gained +4.8 percentage points1.

Nearly a quarter of locations without a wire at 100/20
The fiber gain has not closed the wired gap. Wired service of at least 100/20 Mbps reaches 74.9% of Wyoming's locations, the 2nd lowest share among the states, against 92.3% nationally. That leaves 65,807 locations (25.1%) where no wired provider offers 100/20, 2nd highest1 in the country.
Copper makes the raw technology counts look better than that. DSL is reported at 66.3% of locations, the 2nd highest share of any state (nationally 36.2%), but CenturyLink, which reports most of it, offers 100/20 at only 1.7%. Cable reaches 59.9%, 7th lowest1.

Sublette County, in the west, has the largest fixed-wireless-only share of any Wyoming county, 56.0%. It has no cable, and wired 100/20 reaches 34.7% of its locations; the widest provider there, LR Communications, uses unlicensed fixed wireless only. Uinta County shows how far the radio networks advertise: it has the state's lowest fiber share, 21.3%, yet the highest share of locations with a gigabit (1,000/100) offer, 95.2%. LR Communications, a fixed wireless network that advertises up to 1 Gbps, reports 100/20 or faster at 95.2% of Uinta's locations. Fixed wireless is the only 100/20 option at 43.0% of them and 31.8%1 of Goshen County's. Every speed here is a provider's maximum advertised speed, which says nothing about speeds delivered.

Second wires cluster around the larger towns. In Natrona County, around Casper, 72.0% of locations have two or more; Spectrum offers 100/20 at 82.3% of the county's locations and Visionary Broadband at 82.5%. Elsewhere one network carries the wired market. Lincoln County, in the far west, has 0.0%: its fiber share is 80.3%, and 4 wired companies report service there, yet almost nowhere in the county do two of them offer 100/20. Silver Star Communications has the widest reach, at 74.4% of locations. In Sweetwater County wired 100/20 reaches 93.0% of locations, but only 14.4% have two choices. Statewide, Spectrum is the only wired 100/20 provider at 11.5%1 of locations.
Crook, Fremont and Niobrara: the deepest gaps
Under the BEAD definitions, 9.2% of Wyoming's locations are unserved and 5.3% underserved. Both shares rank 3rd highest among the states. The unserved share fell by 7.0 percentage points since June 2022; the national share is 2.4%1.

BEAD: satellite gets the largest share of the plan
Wyoming leans on satellite more than most states to finish the job. From its $347.9 million6 Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment (BEAD) allocation, the approved Final Proposal covers 38,558 locations for $198.4 million in BEAD funds, $5,146 per location, with $71.1 million7 committed by providers.

Low-Earth-orbit satellite was assigned 15,716 of those locations (40.8%), the 6th highest satellite share of any state plan. Fiber got 12,903 (33.5%, 6th lowest) and fixed wireless 9,939 (25.8%); no cable. $149.4 million7 of the allocation is not assigned to construction, and as of November 2026 what that money may fund had not been decided. The Wyoming Broadband Office posts the plan and its challenge results.
Earlier programs are smaller. The Treasury's Capital Projects Fund gave the state $109.5 million8, and providers in the FCC's Rural Digital Opportunity Fund had reported 4,7859 locations built.

Satellite subscriptions are unusually common: 14.1% of households report one (margin of error ±1.3 percentage points), the 2nd highest14 share in the country by point estimate. The survey counts households and the FCC map counts locations, so the two sets of figures describe different units.
Source: FCC, National Broadband Map, data as of June 30, 2026; Census Bureau, American Community Survey 2025 1-year detailed tables. Availability is a share of locations as of June 30, 2026 (FCC); subscriptions are a share of households from the American Community Survey, 2025 (whiskers: 90% margin of error). Different units and dates: read the gap as a sign, not an exact number.

| Measure | Share | MOE |
|---|---|---|
| Wired 100/20 Mbps available (FCC, share of locations) | 74.9% | |
| Households subscribing to cable, fiber or DSL (Census) | 69.6% | ±1.6 |
| Households relying only on a cellular data plan | 12.1% | ±1.3 |
| Households with no internet subscription | 6.7% | ±1.1 |
On cost, the FCC map has nothing to say. The Affordable Connectivity Program had 21,73613 Wyoming households enrolled in February 2024 before it ended on June 1, 2024. Lifeline continues, but USAC counted only 1,08711 Wyoming subscribers, an estimated 2.7% of those eligible, a participation rate that ranks the lowest12 among the states.

At 56.9% of homes and businesses, as of June 30, 2026. The share is highest in Hot Springs County (86.1%) and lowest in Uinta County (21.3%1). Whether a given address has it can only be checked on the FCC's National Broadband Map.
How many Wyoming homes and businesses lack broadband?
24,129 locations (9.2%) are unserved under the federal BEAD definition, with no reliable wired or licensed fixed wireless service of 25/3 Mbps, and 13,910 more (5.3%) are underserved, below 100/20. The unserved share is the 3rd highest1 among the states.
What is the cheapest internet in Wyoming?
No official source answers it: providers file no prices with the FCC, and each plan's price and fees are on its broadband facts label. The federal Lifeline discount, $9.25 a month for eligible low-income households, is barely used in Wyoming: an estimated 2.7% of eligible households, a rate that ranks the lowest12 among the states.
Checking one address in Wyoming
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.
