WOW! Cable Internet review: 24-month contracts get the best rates

Wide Open West, or WOW!, offers internet service in nine states throughout the Southern and Midwestern U.S. This internet provider features packages with extensive bandwidth at lower-than-average rates.

However, internet users will need to sign up for 24-month contracts to get the best rates from WOW!. And the company's limited availability means that many people will have to look elsewhere for their internet needs.

Estimated Speeds

All of the internet plans WOW! Their customers are based on cable connections -- except the Internet 1 Gig plan, which is based on a fiber connection. Even the lowest plan WOW! offers at "up to 100Mbps" will be enough for many users, and because the plans are affordable, people who would normally select the most economical option might be interested in a higher package. However, each plan lists the maximum speed available and does not necessarily reflect the actual speed a client will receive, so it is advised to double-check which speeds are available in people's locations.
