AT&T runs one of the largest fiber networks in the country, concentrated in the South, the Midwest and Texas. Where fiber has not been built it sells Internet Air, a fixed wireless service delivered over its 5G network. Fiber plans are symmetrical, carry no data cap and require no contract; DSL is no longer sold to new customers.
EarthLink sells internet nationally without owning last-mile infrastructure in most markets, renting capacity on other companies' fiber, copper and wireless networks and billing the customer itself. The catalogue spans fiber from 100 Mbps to 5 Gbps, DSL from 18 to 75 Mbps, and fixed wireless and 5G home service for addresses wired networks do not reach. Fiber and DSL plans include unlimited data. Pricing is not published openly — EarthLink quotes rates only after you enter an address.
Contract:
Twelve-month term on fiber and DSL; 5G home service is month to month
Data allowance:
Unlimited data on fiber and DSL; fixed wireless plans are metered
Xfinity is the consumer brand of Comcast and runs one of the largest cable broadband networks in the United States. Its current residential tiers are sold with a rate that is held for five years rather than a twelve-month introductory price, and the advertised figures assume autopay from a bank account together with paperless billing. Plans carry unlimited data and no term contract.
Contract:
No term contract
Data allowance:
Unlimited data on the current residential plans
Google Fiber, which now trades as GFiber, sells fiber service in a limited set of metro areas rather than across a national footprint. Every tier is symmetrical, so upload speed matches download speed, and the router is part of the monthly price rather than a separate rental line. Pricing is a single standing rate with no introductory period that later steps up.
Contract:
No annual contract
Data allowance:
No data cap
Equipment:
Wi-Fi router included, with extenders on the higher tiers
MINTernet is a regional fixed wireless provider serving parts of New York City. Service reaches the building over the air rather than by a wire, so the speed at a given address depends on the signal it can get.
Starlink is SpaceX's satellite internet service, delivered from low-Earth orbit rather than from the geostationary arc, which is why its latency sits far closer to a wired connection than traditional satellite does. US residential service is sold in three speed tiers, with no annual contract. The dish and router are bought up front — $349 for the standard kit — and the customer installs the dish themselves.
Contract:
No annual contract; service is month to month
Data allowance:
Residential plans are sold as unlimited; the entry tier carries priority limits
Equipment:
Standard kit costs $349 up front; rental is offered in some areas

About this data:
Coverage and speeds for this ZIP code were compiled from the availability and speeds each
provider publishes for this area, rather than from the
FCC National Broadband Map.
Speeds shown are the maximum a provider advertises in this area, not a guaranteed or typical
rate. Prices are not published by the FCC, so every price here was taken from a rate the
provider advertised publicly, last checked September 2026 — several
providers quote only after an address check.
Providers report availability by area, so service can differ from one address to the next.
Confirm with the provider before ordering.
Every provider in Atlanta, GA, side by side
The same providers as above, stripped back to the things worth comparing first.
Prices are the lowest each provider advertises anywhere, not a quote for this address.
Coverage is recorded per provider, so these figures show the widest-reaching provider of each kind
rather than the combined footprint of all of them. Read each as a floor: at least this much of
this city can get it. These are the figures published for Atlanta, GA as a whole — the share within 30317 on its own is not published, and can be higher or lower.

Which provider is best in Atlanta, GA?
There is no single answer — it depends on which of these you care about. Each line below is read
straight off the data on this page, not an opinion about the companies.
Cheapest entry price:AT&T,
from $35 a month — the lowest rate it advertises anywhere, before taxes and equipment.
Most likely to reach you:Xfinity,
covering 99% of Atlanta, GA.
If you want fiber:Hotwire Communications
runs fiber here. Fiber uploads at close to its download speed, which cable and fixed wireless do not.
What speed do you actually need?
Size the plan to the household rather than buying the biggest number available. Most homes are
comfortable well below the top tier, and the upload speed is usually what people notice missing.

Worth knowing
Under 25 Mbps
One person, one thing at a time
Email and browsing · Music streaming · Standard-definition video
Below the FCC's definition of broadband. Workable alone, frustrating shared.
25–100 Mbps
A small household
HD streaming on two or three screens · Video calls · Working from home
Enough for most couples and small families. The upload speed matters more than the download here.
100–300 Mbps
A busy family
4K streaming · Several people working at once · Online gaming · Large downloads
The range most households land in, and the one with the most competition on price.
300–1,000 Mbps
Heavy, simultaneous use
Multiple 4K streams · Uploading video or large files · A house full of devices
Worth paying for if you upload as much as you download. Otherwise the gain is hard to feel.
Over 1,000 Mbps
More than most homes can use
Moving very large files daily · Running servers or a small business from home
Your Wi-Fi, your devices and the sites you visit will all cap out before the line does.
Tell our team what your household actually does online — how many streams, how many

real options, negotiate the promo, and book the install window.
