Fastest ISP Charter Communications

Charter is the third-largest cable provider in America, and like the other large cable providers, it has diverse technologies. The company has a proposed merger with Bright House Networks and Time Warner Cable on the table, although it hasn't gone through yet. While it doesn't have Time Warner's 300Mbps top tier, its slowest 60Mbps tier is much faster than competing providers' low tiers.

Fastest Mobile Network AT&T

AT&T only won nine of our metro areas. Its fastest network technology, called carrier aggregation, requires newer phones than most of the company's customers are using. Its strongest wins were in North Carolina, where the carrier has traditionally ruled the roost.
