Backup internet options in Provo

Xfinity (95% of homes) and Google Fiber (78%) each report service to more than half of Provo homes. At an address that can get both, they run on separate lines.

Home 5G and fixed-wireless plans from T-Mobile Home Internet (83%) and Verizon (59%) report coverage of Provo homes (Verizon’s figure combines Fios fiber and 5G Home). They run over cell towers rather than cable or fiber, so they can work when a wired network is down. Cell coverage by area is 100% for 4G LTE and 82.4% for 5G.

About 7.6% of Provo households, roughly 2,600 homes, get online only through a cell plan. For them a mobile outage is an internet outage.

Fiber networks in Provo

Besides the statewide providers, Provo has fiber service that most cities do not:

  • Google Fiber. Google Fiber took over Provo's former city-built fiber network, iProvo.

A fiber network runs on separate lines, so an outage on one provider in Provo does not mean the others are down.

Power and weather behind internet outages in Provo

Provo City Power customers averaged 35 minutes without power in 2024, across 0.47 interruptions each, against 120 minutes for Utah as a whole. Cable nodes and fiber cabinets run on batteries that last hours, not days, so a long power cut can take internet down even for homes whose own power has returned. See Provo power outages when both go out together.

Utah County logged 118 storm reports since 2015, most often thunderstorm wind, flash flood, and hail. Reports peak in August. Power outages were named in 5 of those storm episodes. Wind, ice and flooding damage poles and buried lines, which is how a storm turns into an internet outage as well as a power outage.

Fiber reports reach 80% of Provo homes, cable 95.2% and copper lines 76.7%. Where fiber runs to the home, a red or blinking LOS light on the optical terminal points to a line problem that a restart will not fix.
