Jeanette M.
AT&T Fixed Wireless
October 26, 2025 A year ago I needed to upgrade my internet service. My broadband was very old and slow and affected my work. I did a lot of research into what service would work best for me given my budget. I opted for the AT&T service after a lot of research from friends, reddit, and online reviews. I was concerned about this new service which is wifi-based, whether it would drop out on me at peak times of day, but I have not experienced any issues. The actual machine itself is a little big, and I had a very small area of my home it would receive signal, but I made it work in a creative way. The set up was very easy and the technical support was very helpful. I have not had any issues this past year. I am glad I made the switch!

May 22, 2024 Very affordable, they also offer payment plans. The wifi speed is just very slow, you can use about two devices and a television before it gets annoying. Easy set up though!
