AT&T Fiber
February 17, 2026 Before I had AT&T Fiber, I was with Spectrum Cable and I was really satisfied with my service. I did have to have additional hardware of course, not just the modem, but I needed a router also. I purchased my own to use, but of course it took up an additional plug on my power strip. I will explain why I mention this later in this review. What I wasn't at all satisfied with was the fact that Spectrum kept raising the price of the service every few months. It was really becoming a problem and finally after a few months of not being able to pay my $90 bill, it became untenable. I had called Spectrum multiple times to have them lower my rate and was met with reps who just would not, and they wouldn't even allow me to talk to their supervisors. So, I had a friend in NC who had fiber from AT&T in the last place they'd lived and was super happy with it and I'd gotten several offers from AT&T in my mail with *really* compelling prices for the different levels of speed. So I decided to take the leap. Got permission from the landlord to have AT&T do the work needed to install, and I was on my way. It only took a few hours for the full install and I was up and running. I have had it for about 4 months now and couldn't be happier! Their modem and router are all in one, in a really well designed box that stands up and freed up that additional plug on my power strip! There is an app on the phone that is SO easy to use and you save money if you set up auto-draft for payment! That's not nothing, especially these days! I have zero complaints. 5 stars, would highly recommend.

February 04, 2023 I like my service provider because they are usually reliable. However, I think they are expensive and when I have had problems in the past they were not very helpful on the phone. They have always had a monopoly in the area until recently. I want to look around because I think Verizon is now in the area and may be cheaper.

January 22, 2023 Internet with charter is great for the most part. We pay $54 dollars a month and have never really had an issue with it. It can maintain a laptop and multiple gaming device with ease. I think for the most part this was the right choice for my household.
