AT&T Expands Fiber Network in Rural Mississippi Communities

More Rural Customers in Mississippi to Enjoy High-Speed Internet over 100% Fiber Network

Posted by AT&T Mississippi Team on June 23, 2016. Many homes and small businesses in the Taylor area will be able to access ultra-fast internet speeds up to 1 gigabit per second¹ over AT&T’s 100% fiber AT&T GigaPower network. Additional fiber to the home locations in Mississippi will be upgraded to internet speeds up to 1Gbps later this year, including parts of the Jackson metro and other areas.

Internet speeds up to 1Gbps over our 100% fiber AT&T GigaPower network are blazing fast which allow you to:

  • Instantly access the latest online movies, music and games.
  • Connect faster to the cloud, videoconferencing and more.
  • Download 25 songs in 1 second, a TV show in 3 seconds or your favorite HD movie in less than 36 seconds.²

“AT&T’s investment is helping to narrow the broadband gap that currently exists between rural and urban areas,” said U.S. Senator Roger Wicker. “For the first time, many small businesses, students, and consumers in Mississippi will now have the same access to high-speed internet as their city counterparts. This increased access will spur economic growth and job creation, enhancing the quality of life for many people in our state.”
