AT&T Fixed Wireless
June 26, 2023 I have tried many different service providers. I am not necessarily happy with ATT's speed, but they have been consistent compared to other providers. I had Comcast, and they were really bad, so ATT is satisfactory. ATT connection is a bit weaker when traveling or in odd locations, which is not surprising but pretty unfortunate.

March 16, 2023 The internet works well and has been consistent for a while thus far. We have not had a problem in over 6 months, but during the start of the Covid pandemic the internet was awful. Ever since then we got a new internet box and it has been great.
