When is AT&T Fiber Going to be Available - Things to know from AT&T
When is AT&T Internet coming to my neighborhood? We're Working On It
AT&T Internet is not available in all areas but AT&T is working to change that! Below, you will find information explaining:
- why services may not be available
- other AT&T internet options
- news about AT&T Fiber expansions
Why AT&T Internet is not available
- 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.
- Equipment is not available – To get service, AT&T Internet equipment has to be in the area. In some instances, it isn't. We do not have information if or when it will be.
- The area is not built for U-verse – some areas are not U-verse ready. The Community team does not have information if or when it will be. Distance and equipment can play a key in instances like this.
- Another competitor services there 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!
Note: In order to get higher speeds, you must be within a certain distance of the serving equipment or the equipment must be present in the area. Points 1 and 2 apply in these scenarios. If internet is not available, there are other options.
Gigabit Speeds, When Is It Coming?
Check out our coverage map to see where AT&T Fiber is at and cities underway. If AT&T Fiber is available, you can order now!
We will check your address, just fill out a form
If your neighbor has AT&T Fiber, we can research your address to see if it's available. Remember, distance and equipment still play a factor as mentioned above.
Heads Up: Some areas, or homes, may not have AT&T Fiber, yet. There a many factors including those listed above. It can take time to build out areas for fiber so please pardon our dust.

Thursday had my landline changed over to go through router with voice & Internet.
Today I was getting alot of static on phone. I called 1 877 737-2478. Girl heard all the static and said she would check the phone and that we would be disconnected and then she would call us. Our phone now has NO LINE. Cannot make calls or receive calls. Line is dead. Also the Router that was installed Aug 4th needed a battery for backup. I got the battery, but the door that is on the bottom will NOT open to allow you to put the battery in. I need the technician to come back, Marcus, and install the battery backup.
FIRST priority is to get me a LINE again on my phone. ** I could not get on to ATT.COM/REPAIR and report problem. DID NOT RECOGNIZE my email address ** nor my present Account Number on my Aug 2 bill. Account No. ** Installation of new service was August 4th.
Please get my phone line up and running as soon as possible. I then need someone out here to load the battery in the router.
Thank you.

Hello,
In our neighborhood - north Plano -75025, fiber was installed about 6 months ago. When I check for the availability of fiber at my address, the tool shows that it's not available. However, when I check for the fiber availability on the house that's behind us it shows that the fiber connectivity is available at 1Gbps What' s interesting is that the fiber goes through the alley that's between both the houses. How long would it be before I can get the fiber at my address? Currently, I have Uverse at 18 Mbps.

Similar question as the person from Plano, TX asked: AT&T Fiber was dug in our neighborhood at the end of September, and we were given a flyer at that time that said "AT&T Gigapower" would be available soon. Well, the digging was completed nearly three months ago, and we haven't heard a peep since. Each time I check to see if it's available yet, I obviously get told that other services available, but not Uverse or Fiber. I have also chatted and called, and no one knows anything. What in the world is going on, and why is it so difficult for AT&T to put out a timeline of some sort to indicate when service will become available? The more this goes on, the more satisfied I become with Comcast.

I am looking at getting ATT as my TV provider.
When I do pricing, it says only uVerse internet up to 45M is available, and NO uVerse TV, but I can get DIRECTTV.
I couple of month ago I helped a friend 1 block over get ity and they were offerred uVerseTV and up to 72M.
I am located diagonaly (125 ft) from an ATT CEV(..Equipment Vault) which like an underground vault!
i am located on a street where they tore it up, to lay a 'honeycomb' tunnel to lay fiber.
Now a little history,
I hav been an ATT customer for years and was an ATT DSL Internet customer from PRODIGY to AMERITECH to SBCGLOBAL to ATT) . I finally gave up and went to cable for internet a couple years ago for SPEED.
When DSL was first provisioned., all that I was originnaly offerred was `1,5M, over 15 years ago. Worked with the provisionling company via David (in DSL DIRECT forum) and he got me bumped from 1.5 to 3. Supposedly the automatic system did not have me mapped correctly.
Same thing happenned again when 6M was deployed and online would not let me upgrade. Again David got me upgraded.
Somewhere along the line my line may have been rerouted to fix problems.
I could post more detailed info, but dont want to do so in a public forum.
I am in Dayton OH, and my phone begins with 937-274-xxxx
Can I try to see why uVerseTV is not offered, and someone one block over has it!

I was told by an AT&T that my home is too far from the line loop. How do I go about getting AT&T to install the additional cabling so the service could reach my area of the subdivision? This has been a very big disappointment and I am under a 2 year contract.
