Cox has been ranked as the fastest internet service provider in the United States, according to HighSpeedInternet.com’s 2024 annual review.

The review, which analyzed average download speeds throughout 2023, found that Cox delivered speeds of 238 Mbps across the country, surpassing its closest competitor by 10 Mbps.

David Deliman, Cox Gulf Coast market vice president, emphasized the importance of fast fiber-powered broadband as consumers add more connected devices to their homes.

“Validating our capabilities with a respected third-party partner reinforces our message to customers that we can deliver the fiber-powered reliable speeds they need now and well into the future,” Deliman said.

Cox reported investing nearly $12 billion in network upgrades from 2014 to 2023. The company stated that all of its markets are currently powered by fiber, with plans to expand fiber-to-the-home services across its footprint in coming years.

According to Cox, all of its customers now have access to gigabit speeds, with approximately half having access to multi-gigabit speeds. In 2023, the company increased download speeds for most customers, doubling its most popular tier from 250 to 500 Mbps at no additional cost.

“Our Speed Test sets the standard for millions of Americans seeking greater insight into their internet connection. With millions of tests conducted in our 2024 Annual Review, HighSpeedInternet.com has the unique capability to examine speeds for internet users from coast to coast,” said Manuel Delgado, Managing Director at HighSpeedInternet.com. “As technologies and ISP infrastructures improve, it is impressive to see Cox emerge as the fastest broadband provider in the U.S. this year in our comprehensive analysis.”
