Best Internet Providers in Gilroy CA
Spectrum
Spectrum (Charter Communications) is the cable internet provider in Gilroy — notably this is different from most Silicon Valley where Xfinity is the cable provider. Gilroy is part of the South Santa Clara County Charter franchise. Plans start at $30/mo for 100 Mbps and go up to 1 Gbps cable with no data caps. For Gilroy households Frontier Fiber where available is the better wired choice — symmetric speeds and fiber-grade reliability — but Spectrum is the practical alternative where Frontier is not. Call (888) 224-5870 for current pricing.

Frontier Fiber
Frontier Fiber has approximately 34 percent coverage in Gilroy. Plans start at $29.99/mo for 500 Mbps and go up to 7 Gbps with symmetric upload and download speeds. Gilroy is one of the few South Bay cities with notable Frontier Fiber presence — historically Verizon FiOS territory before Frontier acquired Verizon's California FiOS operations in 2016. Gilroy is a South Santa Clara County city of approximately 60000 residents — famously the 'Garlic Capital of the World' (the Gilroy Garlic Festival is one of the largest food festivals in the United States) substantial Hispanic-American population (one of the highest concentrations in Santa Clara County) the historic Gilroy Premium Outlets the Gilroy Caltrain station and substantial agricultural and food-processing industry. Many Gilroy households qualify for Spectrum's low-income Internet Assist program. Call (888) 224-5870 for current Frontier Fiber pricing.

AT&T Fiber
Across an estimated 15% of Gilroy, AT&T offers service, and where that's pure fiber it's the top pick in town. Fiber's symmetric upload — as fast as the download — is the differentiator for video calls, cloud work, and large file transfers. Plans start at $55/mo for 300 Mbps and reach 5 Gbps, with no caps and no contracts. Fiber availability is street-level, so a quick check is worth it. Call (888) 224-5870 and we'll verify fiber at your Gilroy address.
View Plans
EarthLink
EarthLink sells fiber in Gilroy that runs over Frontier's underlying network, but with EarthLink's own billing, support, and privacy stance — notably, it doesn't sell or share your browsing data with advertisers. Plans start at $39.95/mo for 300 Mbps up to 5 Gbps with symmetric speeds, typically on a 12-month price lock. Because it rides Frontier's lines, it's available at the same Gilroy addresses where Frontier has built fiber — so the real question is whether fiber has reached your street. Call (888) 224-5870 and we'll run both quotes at your Gilroy address.
