Best Internet Providers in Union
Out on the rolling corn and soybean landscape around Union, the town's low-rise center feels a long way from big-city networks. The state highway and rail spur that slice through town focus commercial growth and new subdivisions. Fiber service is concentrated in downtown Union and along the state highway corridor, while the surrounding farms and southern and eastern outskirts are largely served by satellite and fixed wireless. Out past the grain elevators, upload limits and latency show up quickly on video calls, and in town you get noticeably faster, more symmetrical connections where fiber reaches backyards.
In Union, internet competition varies by neighborhood, but most residents have multiple options to choose from. After reviewing provider availability, plan pricing, typical speeds, and customer sentiment across the 25 areas we track, here are our top recommendations for 2026.
EarthLink Fiber is the standout pick if it is available at your address. With speeds up to 5 Gbps (and, in some areas, symmetrical upload speeds), it is often the best option for gaming, remote work, and busy households with many users and connected devices. Availability has expanded across parts of Union, so it is worth checking your exact address first.
LTD Broadband is usually the most widely available choice in Union and a strong option when you need a reliable connection. Its network reaches approximately 100% of Union, with speeds up to 30 Mbps and plans starting around N/A/mo, making it the most accessible option for many residents. In neighborhoods where EarthLink Fiber is not offered yet, LTD Broadband is often the best overall mix of speed and price.
Viasat can be a strong third option if you would rather keep things simple, with straightforward pricing around $49.99/mo and fewer stipulations.
Coverage reaches roughly 97% of Union, and speeds range between 50 Mbps and 150 Mbps, which is enough for streaming, video calls, and everyday home use. It can be a great fit in parts of Union where signal strength is strong.
Minerva Valley Telephone Company or Viasat may still offer service in parts of Union, if none of these are available at your address, with speeds up to 30 Mbps. Since promotions change often, it is always smart to check current deals before you order.
