もっと良いインターネットを要ります。
もっと良いインターネットが必要です。
The scenario being that either I have a crappy connection or a friend of mine has a crappy connection. Is either of those examples too literal for I need better internet or You need better internet? Is there something more idiomatic?
Your second sentence is good, but your first is incorrect for using a 「を」. It needs to be 「が」 just like in your second.
You could also say:
「もっと良いインターネットがほしいです。」
Your second sentence, while 100% correct, sounds a little bit stiff if you are speaking instead of writing. It just sounds "translated" from another language.
Using 「～～がほしいです」 or 「～～がほしいと思{おも}っています」 would sound more natural in informal oral communication.
You need better internet, would your answer still work? In fact, I'll update my question.
