FindInternet helps Missouri households explore cable and fiber options. We organize public coverage records into address searches and city guides so you can build a shortlist and confirm a plan with the provider.

What FindInternet does

Our focus is Missouri residential internet. The site combines the supplied FCC cable and fiber downloads with U.S. Census geography, then presents provider names, connection types, and reported maximum speed tiers. The comparison guides help explain those records and the questions to ask before ordering.

FindInternet is not the FCC or a government website. We are not the internet service provider: the company you order from confirms service, prices, installation, billing, and support. Exploring this site does not require a phone number or email address.

How our coverage data works

The current import uses these two Missouri FCC downloads, labeled D25 and dated September 15, 2026:

  • bdc_29_Cable_fixed_broadband_D25_15sep2026.zip
  • bdc_29_FibertothePremises_fixed_broadband_D25_15sep2026.zip

The import contains 3,826,598 residential or mixed-service records from 102 provider brands, with records in 934 Census ZIP areas. These are dataset totals, not the number of options at any home.

  1. Import residential service. We include records marked residential or mixed business/residential from the two Missouri files. Business-only records are excluded. DSL, fixed wireless, and satellite are outside this dataset.
  2. Keep the reported provider and technology. Brands use the provider ID and reported brand name. Cable and fiber remain separate, even when they have the same speed.
  3. Match geography directly. Address searches use the Census geocoder to identify a 2020 Census block. ZIP searches group records into 2020 ZIP Code Tabulation Areas. City guides use blocks assigned to a 2020 incorporated city. These are different geographic views.
  4. Show the reported tier accurately. The displayed speed pair uses a provider’s maximum reported download tier for a connection type within the selected area, with the upload rate from that same tier. A tied download rate uses the higher upload rate.
  5. Keep missing data visible. We do not substitute a neighboring block when records are absent. No matching records does not mean there is no internet service.

What these results cannot confirm

Address results describe a Census block, which can contain multiple buildings. They do not match your address to an individual FCC Location ID or confirm that a provider can install service at your building. City counts describe reported blocks, not households, coverage percentages, customer counts, or speed-test performance.

The file date identifies the supplied downloads; it does not mean every record reflects conditions today. Network construction, city boundaries, and service offers can change. A 2020 city boundary can omit later annexations, and a mailing city or postal ZIP may differ from Census geography. Confirm the full address, unit, plan, and installation with the provider.

How we create comparisons

FindInternet publishes the guides on this site. City tables are calculated programmatically from the source records. Guide drafting and site development use AI assistance; the displayed coverage counts come from data calculations. We identify the sources and limitations so readers can assess the evidence.

Coverage results are alphabetical by provider brand. They are not ratings or a paid placement ranking. Homepage provider cards are a starting point, and city pages highlight AT&T or Spectrum where records support their presence while listing other reported brands. We do not claim firsthand testing, publish invented customer reviews, or treat advertised speeds as measured performance.

Our current comparison pages do not include live plan pricing. The cost calculator compares amounts you enter and labels its starting numbers as examples. Dates on guides record substantive publication or revision, rather than changing automatically when the site is rebuilt.

Sources and checking a result

If a listing differs from what a provider tells you, treat the provider’s address-specific answer as the next item to verify. The FCC map is a separate way to examine the location’s reported availability. We cannot resolve an installation decision from a block-level summary.

Mapbox receives the text you type to generate address suggestions. Submitting a full address sends it to the Census Bureau’s public geocoder to find its approximate block. FindInternet does not save the address in its coverage dataset. Those services handle requests under their own policies; see Mapbox’s Privacy Policy and the Census Bureau’s privacy information.
