In Minneapolis, AT&T Fiber and Quantum Fiber are the top fiber providers (both symmetrical multi-gig) while Xfinity is the most widely available cable option, with CenturyLink DSL and 5G alternatives citywide.
Minneapolis has strong fiber competition. AT&T Fiber offers symmetrical multi-gig service across much of the city, and Quantum Fiber (CenturyLink's fiber) is the key fiber source on the north side — Near North and Northeast Minneapolis — where AT&T Fiber is thinner. Xfinity covers most of the city with cable (up to 2 Gig), and CenturyLink offers DSL just about everywhere (even downtown, where fiber is sparse). T-Mobile and Verizon 5G round out the options.
