Best Internet Providers in Country Homes
Sitting on Spokane's northern suburban edge, Country Homes feels like a patchwork of postwar neighborhoods and strip development. Roads and growth hug the U.S. 2 and Division Street corridor, and utility runs and upgrades followed those transport routes. Fiber service is concentrated in central Country Homes and along the U.S. 2 corridor, while outlying mobile?home parks and the northern fringes remain largely on DSL or satellite. So neighbors near the main roads usually enjoy lower latency and higher uploads, whereas people a few blocks off the corridor often notice slower speeds, metered plans, or fallback to Starlink and other wireless services.
In Country Homes, 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, 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 Country Homes, so it is worth checking your exact address first.
StarTouch Broadband is usually the most widely available choice in Country Homes and a strong option when you need a reliable connection. Its network reaches approximately 100% of Country Homes, with speeds up to 25 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, StarTouch Broadband is often the best overall mix of speed and price.
CenturyLink can be a strong third option if you would rather keep things simple, with straightforward pricing around $50/mo and fewer stipulations like symmetrical upload speeds.
Coverage reaches roughly 93% of Country Homes, and speeds range between 50 Mbps and 1 Gbps, which is enough for streaming, video calls, and everyday home use. It can be a great fit in parts of Country Homes where signal strength is strong.
CenturyLink or Viasat may still offer service in parts of Country Homes, if none of these are available at your address, with speeds up to 1 Gbps. Since promotions change often, it is always smart to check current deals before you order.
