WHY DOES THIS MATTER?

Speed matters when it comes to your wireless network. Having fast speeds is important whether you’re downloading your favorite HBO Max show to watch, streaming your favorite music or browsing the internet while at home or on-the-go.

AT&T’s fastest wireless network wins are based on consumer-led nationwide test results that come from millions of real people that take tests daily on the Ookla Speedtest application.

OUR DEDICATION TO PROVIDING A GREAT WIRELESS EXPERIENCE

Over the past 5 years (2015-2019), AT&T invested more than $125 billion in our U.S. wireless and wireline networks, including capital investments and acquisitions of wireless spectrum and operations. Over this same period, we invested more in the United States than any other public company. And we’re not stopping – we continue to dedicate our time and resources to enhance our network for customers and communities across the country.

In addition, we continue to enhance our wireless solutions for our customers. With the recent launch of Unlimited Your Way SM, our customers can save more by picking the best unlimited wireless plan for each family member on their account, without everyone having to be on the same plan.4
