South Fulton in Georgia
South Fulton is wired twice over: AT&T reports fiber at 85.9% of its homes and businesses and Xfinity's network reaches 97.8%. A fiber builder that was not on the 2022 map, GreyStone Connect, now lists 20.8%1 of the city. The newest FCC release, as of June 30, 2026, also shows the city's three-way wired choice shrinking from its December 2025 level.
Who reports service in South Fulton
The FCC counts 38,8741 homes and businesses inside South Fulton's city limits as drawn for the 2020 Census. The table below lists every company that reports service to them as of June 30, 2026, in the FCC file revision of November 10, 2026. A listing means the provider serves the location or says it could connect it with a standard installation within ten business days; listings can be challenged on the FCC National Broadband Map.

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 (Starlink, Viasat, HughesNet) report service at nearly every location and are left out of the table.
Two wires reach almost every address. Xfinity is listed at 97.8% of locations, over cable except for a sliver of fiber (0.4%). AT&T is listed at 94.8%, with fiber at 85.9% and copper DSL or its own fixed wireless at the rest. Both advertise multi-gigabit top speeds here: AT&T up to 5 Gbps and Xfinity up to 2 Gbps1.
The provider count needs a caveat. 4 companies report fiber in the city, but Google Fiber lists 41 locations. In practice the fiber choice is AT&T, GreyStone Connect where it has built, and Xfinity's few fiber addresses.
Fiber at almost every address, mostly AT&T's
Fiber is reported at 89.5% of South Fulton's locations. That is well above Georgia (70.3%) and the US (62.6%), and above Atlanta (78.1%). Among the 343 US cities of 100,000 or more it ranks tied for 78th highest, against a median of 74.0%1.

| Savannah | 62.2% |
| Columbus | 61.3% |

The old copper network has not gone away. DSL is still reported at 48.2% of locations, down from 53.7%2 in June 2022, and AT&T advertises DSL at no more than 100 Mbps download. So AT&T offers 100/20 Mbps at 86.6%1 of the city, below its full footprint.
GreyStone Connect, the network added since 2022
GreyStone Connect did not appear in South Fulton on the first FCC map, with data as of June 30, 2022. It now reports fiber at 8,090 locations, 20.8% of the city, with a fastest advertised download of 2 Gbps. It reports service in 1 state only, Georgia, at 35,3891 locations in all.
Most of its build overlaps AT&T's fiber or Xfinity's cable: GreyStone Connect is the only wired provider at 100/20 Mbps at just 0.8% of South Fulton's locations. That overlap accounts for nearly all of the city's fiber-on-fiber competition. In June 2022, 0.0%2 of locations had two or more separate fiber networks; now 17.3% do, against 9.9%1 statewide.

Choice rose, then slipped in the latest release
Between June 2022 and December 2025, the share of locations with three or more wired providers at 100/20 Mbps went from 0.2%2 to 25.5%. In the June 2026 data it is 16.9%. Locations with two or more fiber networks fell over the same six months, from 25.9% to 17.3%, and fiber's overall reach from 91.4%3 to 89.5%. That fall of 1.9 percentage points is a change that ranks 6th lowest1 among large cities, meaning one of the largest declines. The FCC files record what providers report; they do not say why a listing changed.

| United States | 7.8% | 36.6% | 44.6% | 11.1% |
Measured from 2022, the direction is still upward. Two or more wired choices at 100/20 Mbps reach 88.6% of locations, up 13.3 percentage points since June 2022 and above Georgia's 62.0% and the national 55.6%. A single wired option at that speed covers 10.9%, down from 22.7%2; at 9.6% of locations that one option is Xfinity, and at 0.5%1 it is AT&T.

Multi-gigabit top tiers on both wires
Speed tiers changed more than coverage did. In June 2022 the fastest advertised download was 2 Gbps or more at 30.1% of locations; now it is at 90.4%, against 70.5% for Georgia. The FCC's gigabit tier (1,000 Mbps download with at least 100 Mbps upload) went from 73.3%2, the same share as fiber reached then, to 95.6%. With fiber at 89.5%1, part of that gigabit footprint is now reported on cable.

Fixed wireless and the remaining gaps
T-Mobile reports fixed wireless home internet at 85.9% of locations and Verizon at 78.3%, with fastest advertised downloads of 100 Mbps and 300 Mbps. Each offers 100/20 Mbps at a smaller share: 22.1% and 19.8%. Verizon's location count has more than tripled since 2022, yet licensed fixed wireless overall reaches 93.7%1 of the city, down from 97.4%2.

| Licensed fixed wireless (incl. 5G home) | 93.7% | 84.6% |

The gaps are small. 199 locations have no wired provider at 100/20 Mbps, 132 have no land-based option at that speed even counting fixed wireless, and 22 are reported reachable by satellite alone. Under the federal BEAD definitions, 57 locations are unserved, without wired or licensed fixed wireless service at 25/3 Mbps; in June 2022 that share was 0.9%2, now 0.2%1.
What South Fulton households subscribe to
The Census Bureau's 2025 American Community Survey counts households, not locations, and its city estimates carry wide margins. In South Fulton, 95.5% of households had a broadband subscription (margin of error ±2.7 percentage points) and 4.4% had none (±2.7 percentage points4). The five-year estimate for 2020–2024, with a narrower margin, puts the share without a subscription at 4.3% (±0.9 percentage points5).
Cable, fiber or DSL subscriptions were 78.5% (±5.9 percentage points), and 12.8% of households relied only on a cellular data plan (±4.0 percentage points). Satellite subscriptions came to 9.1% (±3.8 percentage points), a point estimate that ranks tied for 19th highest among large cities, in a city where satellite is the only reported option at 221 locations. Georgia's figure is 6.8%4, and the margins are too wide to call the difference real.
