November 05, 2026 Borderline unusable internet, they'll charge you for "up to" 500mbps and you wont even crack 30 on their best days. Genuinely hope a class action lawsuit comes for these people and their scam.

AT&T Fiber
June 07, 2026 ATT's install was fairly straight forward although its really only done through service contractors rather than ATT employees which I guess is standard. They were however very helpful and I even got one of their direct numbers if there is ever an issue. I do wish Their standard equipment came with an option to modify the band the WIFI broadcasts on because all my neighbors operate on the same band, leading to clutter. I have not had any noticeable outages other than those related to power outages. Having symmetric upload/download is also a plus with no data caps. They do offer incentives if you sign up yourself, and another incentive if you place a service in the cart but leave and come back.
