How to get fiber installed for a neighborhood.

Satellite internet from StarLink or FWA from one of three providers, realtor to relocate to where desired service is available… All provide an option besides waiting for next few years, end of 2025 ATT will reach stated goal of 30+ million out of 60+ million hardwired footprint.

Does ATT offer any internet service currently to your address? 
ATT reaches less than 50% of addresses in Toney, Al with population under 14,000. Has about 5200 addresses total and population density around 180 per square mile while my city Waukesha, Wi has over 70,000 population with density of 2800 per square mile and currently about 40% of addresses have ATT Fiber but within footprint all have some speed tier available. For IPBB speeds can be 100, 75, 50, 25, 18, 10, 5, 3, 1.5 and .76… my address is internet 50 which is likely lower than your MediaCom service.

Two years left and 6 million more address will be added out of estimate 36 million waiting… 16.67% chance any footprint address will receive ATT Fiber by  start 2026 as of November 2023… about 250,000 addresses are added every month.

Hello@davarravad, thanks for reaching out to AT&T Community and Forums. Let's get you the help you need.

To answer your question -

For fiber availability please click on check availability, and enter your ZIP code/address. If on the website it shows as available then you can order it online or call our team at 844.886.4258, and they will let you know further installation process.

We'd also recommend checking out our information on when faster AT&T speeds is going to be available. You can also sign up to be notified when Fiber internet service is available at your address.

There are a few factors that could be preventing your address to have Fiber internet service:

1. Distance – AT&T Internet is a distance-dependent service. If you are too far away from the equipment, certain services may not be available. This means your neighbor may have service, but your home cannot. 
2. Equipment is not available – To get service, AT&T Internet equipment has to be in the area. In some instances, it isn't. As above, this could mean a neighbor may have it, but service was not expanded to your home. We do not have information if or when it will be. If you have 1 Gig Fiber and want to upgrade to 5 Gig, please be patient with us we work to expand that footprint.
3. The area is not built for AT&T Internet/ Fiber – some areas are not internet ready. The Community team does not have information if or when it will be since installation is factor dependent as mentioned at the top of the page. Distance and equipment can also play a factor in instances like this.
4. Another competitor services the area - This happens from time to time but it does not mean all services are not available to you. Check out other internet options below!
5. For some internet services, what is offered during the point of sale is an estimate. Most of the time, what is offered will be installed. To determine if service is available, our techs will perform tests beforehand and let you know of any issues.

We are continually expanding our fiber footprint to many households every day. You can sign up for a notification if it does become available in the future, please visit http://sm.att.com/4dc13442. We will send you a notification via your preferred method as soon as AT&T Fiber becomes available to you.

Let us know if this helps!
