On average, the monthly cost of home internet is $78, so dealing with data restrictions is not only frustrating but can also easily add to your internet bill. Home internet can get expensive. A CNET survey found that one in five US adults has downgraded plans, switched internet providers, sau chiar cancelled service due to the rising cost of home internet.
Between streaming, jocuri, working from home, uploading videos to social media and everything else we use the internet for, it’s possible to burn through a large chunk of data each month. That’s not a big deal if you have an internet provider that offers unlimited data, but if you’re stuck with a provider that enforces a monthly cap on your data, you’ll want to manage your monthly data usage to avoid overage fees and/or throttled speeds.
But instead of monitoring your monthly data use to avoid penalty, I recommend using an internet provider with unlimited data. Here are the top ISPs that offer truly unlimited data with no monthly caps.

Our take – Speeds, pricing and special offers from Astound vary slightly from market to market, but unlimited data is one perk available in all service areas. Along with unlimited data, Astound offers plans starting at just $30 per month for speeds up to 300Mbps. Pricing is good for one year and includes free installation in most locations, but beware of price increases once the introductory rate expires. Customers can also opt for Astound’s two-year price lock guarantee, but the promo rate may increase.

Our take – AT&T is our pick for the best fiber internet provider overall thanks to its wide availability, competitive pricing, fast speeds and unlimited data. All AT&T Fiber plans come without data caps, which means you can stream, game and browse social media without fear of incurring overage fees.

Our take – Lumen Technologies brand CenturyLink offers DSL internet service with max speeds of 100Mbps at $55 monthly. This is not to be confused with Lumen’s fiber service — Quantum Fiber — which starts at $50 a month for 500Mbps download and upload speeds. Both ISPs offer unlimited data.

Our take – Unlike AT&T, Frontier offers unlimited data with both its DSL and fiber-optic internet services. Equipment costs are also included in the monthly cost and no contracts are required, making Frontier one of the more straightforward providers when it comes to pricing. Unlimited data adds to the value of any internet plan, but some Frontier plans are a better value than others. Frontier’s DSL service starts at $65 per month but max speeds vary widely by location.

Our take – Kinetic is another service that comes with unlimited data regardless of whether it’s DSL or fiber-optic. Speeds and pricing can and do vary by location with Kinetic, but unlimited data is one standard that customers across all markets can enjoy.

Our take – Optimum includes unlimited data with all its plans. Along with that advantage, Optimum plans are priced lower than most considering the speeds you get. For example, you can get 1,000Mbps for just $40 monthly ($55 monthly after one year, which is still on par with competitors) and an introductory tier of 300Mbps for $30. If you live in the Northeast and are serviceable for its fiber tiers, you can access faster speeds of 2-gig, 5-gig and 8-gig tiers for $90, $120 and $280 a month, respectively. Largely a cable internet provider, Optimum also offers fiber-optic service in select areas. More than 2.8 million Optimum-serviceable homes are eligible for fiber service at no extra cost.

Our take – Quantum Fiber offers an impressive range of speeds and prices, starting at 200Mbps and topping out at 8,000Mbps. Since Quantum Fiber is 100% fiber, you get symmetrical download and upload speeds. There are no equipment fees (at least initially), data caps or contracts. In addition, customers get to keep their monthly price for as long as they keep their service through Quantum Fiber’s price-for-life guarantee.

Our take – All Spectrum internet plans come with fast speeds, no contracts and, you guessed it, unlimited data. That, plus an equipment fee of $10 per month if you choose to rent a router puts Spectrum right up there with Frontier when it comes to straightforward pricing. Spectrum offers just two internet plans: $50 monthly for 500Mbps or $70 monthly for 1,000Mbps.

Our take – Restricting data caps were a common pain point with satellite internet, but Starlink is remedying many of satellite internet’s drawbacks, including limited data. Unlimited data is included with each Starlink plan, but select tiers include an allotment of priority data that grants “network precedence over standard and mobile data, meaning users will experience faster and more consistent download and upload speeds.” Once the priority data pool is exhausted, users fall to the standard, yet still unlimited, data tier.

Our take – In my review of Starry Internet, I was impressed by the provider’s ability to offer affordable, high-speed service over a fixed wireless network. The provider’s flagship plan offers up to 100Mbps starting at $30 per month, but gig service is available in select areas starting at $85 per month. Regardless of the Starry plan you choose, it comes with unlimited data, no contracts or equipment fees.

Our take – 5G may be the future of home internet, at least in underserved areas where cable and fiber internet are either unavailable or too expensive. Customers can now choose between two speed tiers: 87Mbps to 318Mbps and 133Mbps to 415Mbps. Prices range from $50 to $70 monthly and come with unlimited data, no contracts and no additional equipment fees. You can bundle your home internet with eligible mobile plans to receive a discount.

Our take – Verizon Fios ranks right up there with AT&T Fiber when it comes to speeds, pricing and customer satisfaction. Another advantage of Verizon Fios: unlimited data. Every plan includes it, from 300Mbps ($50/month) and 500Mbps ($75/month) to gig service ($90/month). In select NYC areas, 2-gig service is also available for $110/month.

Our take – Verizon’s 5G home internet service offers two plans: $50 per month for speeds ranging from 50 to 300Mbps or $70 for anywhere between 85 and 1,000Mbps. The actual speeds you can get will depend on your location, but either way, unlimited data is included with both plans. Service also comes with free equipment and no contract requirements. Perhaps best of all, qualifying Verizon mobile customers can get an additional discount of $15 or $25 off 5G home internet service.

Our take – WideOpenWest (WOW) plans start at just $30 per month for speeds up to 300Mbps, but other plans include 600Mbps, 1,000Mbps and 1,200Mbps service. All plans come with unlimited data. WOW is one of the lesser-known, lesser-available providers compared to big providers like Cox, Mediacom, Spectrum and Xfinity, but the provider is making a name for itself with highly competitive pricing and favorable service terms, like unlimited data.

Best unlimited data internet providers compared
Please note that the plans below show each provider’s cheapest available tier. The max speed is the top advertised speed for that given plan, but it might not be available in your area. Overall, the best selection for you — and the most cost-effective plan — might be a different tier that provides a faster speed at a higher price but a better value. To more fully understand this value-based approach, check out CNET’s guide to examining the cost per Mbps.

Honorable mentions with (sort of) unlimited data
These internet providers are not truly unlimited but either offer unlimited data options or won’t penalize you too harshly for going over your limit. While no data cap is ideal, these providers are a close second if you can’t get one of the providers listed above.
Hughesnet: Hughesnet has “no hard data caps.” What does that mean? Hughesnet plans now come with speeds of 50 to 100Mbps and a “priority data” limit of 100 to 200GB per month. If and once you exceed that limit, Hughesnet may lower your speeds for the remainder of your billing cycle to free bandwidth for folks who haven’t yet gone over theirs. There’s no overage fee, though, and you can add more data throughout the month if the slowed speeds are a nuisance.

Rise Broadband: Rise Broadband is a fixed wireless provider popular in many zone rurale due to its ability to deliver internet service without the need for a dedicated phone, cable or fiber wire. It’s also a popular choice for unlimited internet, but if you want decent speeds, it won’t come cheap.
Strălucire: Sparklight plans boast competitive pricing without contracts, but all Sparklight plans have a soft data cap of 5TB. That’s a ton of data (the average household uses approximately 663GB of data each month, per the latest OpenVault report), but if you do manage to go over, Sparklight may reduce your speeds for the remainder of the billing cycle but will not charge any overage fees.
Xfinity: Many of Xfinity’s plans previously included a data cap of 1.2TB. However, this cable provider is currently offering unlimited data for all plans. For instance, customers who sign up for Xfinity’s five-year price guarantee can receive unlimited data. Though it’s unclear if the previous data cap returns after your one- or five-year promotional rate. Overall, service terms and prices can vary widely by location with Xfinity, so select plans in some markets may very well come with unlimited data.
Pros and cons of internet plans with no data caps
For the most part, the pros of choosing an unlimited internet provider far outweighs the cons, but there may be some instances where accepting a data cap makes sense.
Avantaje:
- No overage fees or other penalties for exceeding your limit
- No having to monitor your data usage throughout the month
- Unlimited data is ideal for multiple devices or those who use large amounts of data for working from home or learning online
Contra:
- Monthly pricing may be higher
- It may not be worth the upgrade
Some providers charge a premium for unlimited data, which could add $10 or more to your monthly bill. Others may only offer unlimited data with select service types or plans and, while the unlimited data may be enticing, it’s possible that upgrading to a pricier plan could have you paying for more than you need.
Those instances are fairly uncommon, which means internet plans with no data cap are typically the better value. When considering internet providers, I’d always check out the ones with unlimited data first.
Internet providers with no data caps FAQs
What uses the most internet data?
Streaming video, especially if it’s in HD or 4K. According to Netflix, streaming in standard definition can consume 1GB per hour, HD can eat up 3GB per hour and 4K can use as much as 7GB per hour. Let’s say you binge all 485 minutes of Jocul Calamarului in HD this month; that’ll add up to around 24GB of data.
Why do internet providers have data caps?
There’s only so much bandwidth available, so providers may have to enforce data caps to keep everyone happy and connected. This is especially true with satellite internet technology, which has limited bandwidth. Consequently, you’ll find the lowest monthly data allowances by far with satellite internet service. In the case of DSL and cable internet providers, which often come with a data cap of around 1TB, if any, the providers largely just want to discourage excessive usage. If they were planning to make extra money in the form of overage fees, they’d lower the data cap from 1TB, which is typically far more than the average household will use.
Is 1TB a lot of data?
If you have a 1TB data cap, the good news is that’s probably going to be more than enough for your needs. According to the latest OpenVault report, the average US household used 663GB of data per month in the fourth quarter of 2025, an increase of almost 9% in total usage from 2022. But even with the rise in data consumption among Americans, 1TB of data should be plenty for the average household.
How can I use less internet data?
There are a number of ways to reduce your internet data use, including streaming in standard definition as opposed to HD, downloading music or TV shows instead of streaming them repeatedly and disconnecting unused devices from your Wi-Fi network.
