The results are in—and AT&T is the Fastest Wireless Network in the Nation^** for the fourth consecutive quarter according to results from Speedtest® by Ookla®. This also means AT&T led the way in consumer-initiated tests for all of 2019.

These results reflect the billions of dollars of technology investments we have spent on our wireless network creating great customer experiences. Speedtest results show we increased our speeds by 45.7% year-over-year, while one of our competitors never “checked the box” on speed with only a 16.5% increase year over year and the other defined what it meant to be “Un-speedy” with only a 9.4% increase year over year.
