AT&T expands service in Southwest Florida

AT&T has deployed the newly acquired EchoStar spectrum, which is already expanding coverage in cities and towns across the country at over 23,000 cell sites. In Southwest Florida, more than 120 sites have been upgraded, including sites in Fort Myers, Naples, Bonita Springs, Cape Coral, Port Charlotte, and Lehigh Acres.

What will this do?
• Faster, more consistent 5G performance
• Faster downloads and uploads
• Stronger connections indoors and in more places, including rural areas
• More capacity for streaming, gaming, and using smart devices, all at once
• Expansion of AT&T Internet Air, their fixed-wireless home internet solution

“We’ve put EchoStar spectrum to work on our network and customers are already feeling the difference,” said Jeff McElfresh, chief operating officer, AT&T. “This gives us the runway to expand availability of AT&T Internet Air for consumers and businesses and add even more download speed to our 5G service. We’re setting the bar for what it means to be the best advanced networking company in America.”
