Spectrum
For most of Vista, Spectrum is the cable workhorse — its network reaches around 16% of the city. Pricing starts at $49.99/mo for 500 Mbps up to 1 Gbps, no contract and no data cap, so streaming and gaming never trigger a surprise bill. Upload tops out near 35 Mbps, the usual cable trade-off. Call (888) 224-5870 before signing up and we'll confirm the best available rate at your address.

EarthLink
EarthLink sells fiber in Vista that runs over AT&T'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 AT&T's lines, it's available at the same Vista addresses where AT&T 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 Vista address.
