Customer Reviews for Internet Service Providers in North Carolina
Customer Reviews

AT&T Fiber
June 21, 2023 We have rarely had interruptions in service since we had the fiber service installed a few years ago. It is actually faster than we have use for, but I would rather have too much speed then not enough. The only add on we have to make is to add a mesh system because our house is too large for the router the ISP provides. The too work seamlessly and the fact that we never think about our internet service is proof that it is fantastic.

November 05, 2026 Service during the day has gotten a little better. However, Spectrum does a lot of maintenance late at night and therefore the TV and Internet go out. Not happy with that since I stay up late.
