Fremont in California
Fremont is wired by two companies. Xfinity's network reaches 99.1% of its homes and businesses and is the only wired option at 100/20 Mbps for 53.3%; AT&T fiber reaches 37.9%, and fiber from any provider 38.2%1, less than in nearby Hayward or across California. Around those two wires, local fixed wireless networks report service almost everywhere, and the Census Bureau's survey puts the city's home broadband subscription rate among the highest of any large US city.
Two wires, and many names on the list
12 companies report wired or fixed wireless internet somewhere in Fremont, as of June 30, 2026 (FCC file revision of November 10, 2026). The list is long, but only 4 of them use wires, and two carry nearly all wired service: Xfinity at 99.1% of the city's 54,829 homes and businesses, and AT&T at 93.5%1. Most of the other names are radio networks.

Source: FCC, National Broadband Map, data as of June 30, 2026. Share of the area's broadband serviceable locations where the provider reports service as of June 30, 2026. "Only wired option" is the share of locations where it is the single wired provider at 100/20 Mbps. Provider-reported and challengeable; speeds are advertised maximums, not measured; no prices. Satellite providers (HughesNet, Viasat, Starlink) report service at nearly every location and are left out of the table.
Each share counts the locations where a company reports that it can connect a home or business within ten business days of a request. The FCC calls these broadband serviceable locations; one apartment building is one location. Reports can be challenged on the FCC map, which is also where a single address can be checked.
Less fiber than the cities around it
Fiber reaches 38.2% of Fremont's locations, 57th lowest among the 343 US cities of 100,000 or more. AT&T accounts for almost all of it, with fiber at 37.9% of locations; Xfinity reports fiber at 0.6%. 3 companies report fiber somewhere in the city, the same count as in June 2022, but two or more fiber networks reach the same address at only 0.3%1 of locations.

| Fremont | 38.2% |
The gap with its neighbors is wide. A few miles north in Hayward, AT&T alone reports fiber at 58.2% of locations and fiber from any provider reaches 65.1%. To the south, San Jose is at 43.9%, Santa Clara at 51.7% and Sunnyvale at 49.7%; California as a whole is at 47.8% and the US at 62.6%. Fremont's fiber share has grown since the first national map, from 26.1%2 in June 2022, a rise of 12.0 percentage points1.
Where AT&T has no fiber it still sells DSL over its copper telephone lines, reported at 62.7% of locations. That share fell by 3.8 percentage points since June 2022, from 66.5%2. AT&T reports some service at 93.5% of locations but offers 100/20 Mbps at only 48.7%1.
Xfinity alone at 100/20 for half the city
Wired service of 100/20 Mbps or more is reported at 99.3% of Fremont's locations. The question is how many wires compete there. At 53.5% of locations exactly one wired provider offers that speed, 61st highest among large cities and above the California share of 43.2%. Xfinity is that single provider at 53.3% of locations. Two or more wired providers are available at 45.8%, up from 35.0%2 in June 2022; fiber grew by 12.0 percentage points1 over the same period.

The small remainder matters to the addresses in it. 387 locations (0.7%) have no wired provider at 100/20 Mbps. For 360 of them a fixed wireless network is the only way to get that speed, and 81 locations have nothing but satellite.
Uploads rose on the cable lines
The largest change on Fremont's wires since 2022 is in upload speeds, not in who owns them. Wired service of at least 100 Mbps in both directions was advertised at 26.3% of locations in June 2022 and at 92.9% by June 2026. Fiber reaches only 38.2%, so most locations that now have a wired 100/100 Mbps option have it over cable. Gigabit service with uploads of 100 Mbps or more (the FCC's 1,000/100 tier) went from 26.2%2 to 97.9%1.

Top download tiers moved too. In June 2022 the fastest advertised download at 82.6%2 of locations was between 940 Mbps and 2 Gbps; now the top tier at 92.8% is 2 Gbps or more. Xfinity advertises up to 2 Gbps and AT&T up to 5 Gbps1. All of these are maximum speeds that providers advertise and report to the FCC, not measured speeds.

Local radio networks cover the city
Fixed wireless sends service by radio from a provider's antenna to a small receiver on the building. Unlicensed fixed wireless uses shared radio bands; licensed fixed wireless uses spectrum a company holds, and includes the mobile carriers' 5G home internet. In Fremont unlicensed fixed wireless is reported at 99.3% of locations, 20th highest1 among large cities, up from 77.9%2 in June 2022.

The widest of these networks is Tekify Fiber & Wireless, which reports unlicensed fixed wireless at 98.9% of Fremont's locations, 100/20 Mbps at 93.3%, and a top advertised download of 10 Gbps. Its whole footprint is in California, 145,732 locations, and almost all of it was added after June 2022 (a change of +144,2292). Sail Internet reports 52.0% of Fremont's locations and RobinsonHSS 34.5%, each advertising up to 1 Gbps; Etheric Networks reports licensed fixed wireless at 70.9%1.
The mobile carriers report 5G or LTE home internet as well: Verizon at 90.0% of locations, with 100/20 Mbps at 51.9%, and T-Mobile at 70.0%, with 100/20 at 35.4%. The number of licensed fixed wireless providers in the city went from 22 to 61 since June 2022. A radio network's map shows where it says it can serve, not how many customers one antenna can carry; everyone on a sector shares its capacity, and providers decide sign-ups address by address.
Nearly every household subscribes
The FCC map counts what is offered; the Census Bureau's American Community Survey asks households what they pay for. In the 2025 survey, 98.7% of Fremont households had a broadband subscription of some kind (margin of error ±0.7 percentage points), 4th highest among large cities by point estimate, against 95.6%4 statewide. Cities close to it in the ranking may not differ by more than the survey's error.

Availability is a share of locations as of June 30, 2026 (FCC); subscriptions are a share of households from the American Community Survey, 2025 (whiskers: 90% margin of error). Different units and dates: read the gap as a sign, not an exact number.

| Measure | Share | MOE |
|---|---|---|
| Wired 100/20 Mbps available (FCC, share of locations) | 99.3% | |
| Households subscribing to cable, fiber or DSL (Census) | 89.3% | ±2.1 |
| Households relying only on a cellular data plan | 8.3% | ±2.1 |
| Households with no internet subscription | 1.3% | ±0.7 |
Most subscribe over a wire: 89.3% of households had cable, fiber or DSL service (margin of error ±2.1 percentage points). 8.3% relied on a cellular data plan alone, and 1.3% had no internet subscription (margin of error ±0.7 percentage points4), down from 4.9%5 in the 2019 survey. Survey figures count households over a year; the FCC's count is of locations on one date, so the two are not directly comparable.
Alameda County has two or more wired choices at 100/20 Mbps at 68.7%1 of its locations; every county is mapped on the California page.

Checking one address in Fremont
The figures on this page describe the whole area. Which providers report service at a single home or apartment is shown only on the FCC's own map: search the address at broadbandmap.fcc.gov. If a provider is listed there but cannot actually connect you within ten business days, or the location is missing or misplaced, the map has a button to file a challenge; providers must respond, and corrections flow into later releases. Prices and plans are not part of the FCC data: each provider must show them on its broadband facts label at the point of sale.
