Beaumont in Texas

Home internet in Beaumont runs on two wires. Spectrum's cable network reaches 93.2% of the city's homes and businesses and AT&T's fiber 65.0%; across most of the city that AT&T fiber does not reach, Spectrum is the only fast wired option. A third wired provider at 100/20 Mbps is reported at 0.0%1 of locations, tied for the lowest share among the country's larger cities.

Spectrum everywhere, AT&T fiber at two locations in three

The FCC counts 41,701 homes and businesses inside Beaumont's city limits, and as of June 30, 2026 (file revision of November 10, 2026) the list of who serves them is short. Spectrum reports service at 93.2% of locations, almost all of it over cable; it reports fiber at 0.6%. AT&T reports service at 89.5%, a mix of three technologies: fiber at 65.0%1 of the city's locations, and copper DSL or fixed wireless across much of the rest.

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, Starlink, Viasat) report service at nearly every location and are left out of the table.

Below those two, the wired list is almost empty: Spectrum and AT&T are the only wired providers that report home service in the city. Rural Telecommunications of America reports a local fixed wireless network at 1.3%1. A provider counts as available here when it tells the FCC it could connect a location within ten business days; the claim can be challenged on the FCC National Broadband Map.

No third wire

Fast wired service itself is close to universal: 94.8% of locations have at least one wired provider offering 100/20 Mbps. What Beaumont lacks is a third. The share of locations with three or more wired providers at that speed is 0.0%, tied for the lowest among the 343 US cities of 100,000 or more, against 17.4% for Texas and 11.1% nationally. Two such providers are reported at 63.4% of locations and exactly one at 31.3%1.

The single-wire share is almost entirely Spectrum: it is the only wired option at 100/20 Mbps for 29.8% of locations, while AT&T is the only one for 1.6%. On average a Beaumont location has 1.581 wired providers at that speed.

One fiber network, not two

2 providers report fiber somewhere in Beaumont, up from 22 in June 2022, yet the fiber map is essentially AT&T's. At least one fiber provider is reported at 65.6% of locations, and two or more at 0.0%, tied for the lowest among large cities. Across Texas, 18.2%1 of locations have two fiber networks.

Fiber is also what separates the two halves of the city on speed. Gigabit service with uploads of at least 100 Mbps, the FCC's 1,000/100 tier, is advertised at 65.6% of locations, the same share as fiber, while a 1 Gbps download alone, which Spectrum's cable network also advertises, is reported at 94.8%. Where AT&T has fiber, its fastest advertised plan is 5 Gbps; Spectrum's is 1 Gbps1. These are advertised maximums, not measured speeds.

Beaumont beside other Gulf Coast cities

Among the larger Texas cities near the Gulf shown below, Beaumont has the least fiber: 65.6% of locations, against 81.9% in Houston and 78.1% in Corpus Christi. Pasadena and League City share its lack of a third wire, with three or more wired providers at 100/20 Mbps at 0.1% and 0.0% of locations, but fiber reaches 84.6% and 89.4% of them. Corpus Christi has a third wire at 66.8%1.

Slow growth since 2022

Fiber reached 60.3% of Beaumont's locations on the first National Broadband Map, as of June 30, 2022, and reaches 65.6% now, a rise of 5.3 percentage points. Among the 343 large cities, that increase ranks tied for 70th lowest. Over the same years the share with two or more wired providers at 100/20 Mbps went from 59.0% to 63.4%, and the share reached by DSL over copper telephone lines fell from 25.9%2 to 20.9%1. The comparison uses shares, not counts, because the FCC revises its list of locations with each release.

The largest change came from wireless. Fixed wireless at 100/20 Mbps or faster was reported at 14.5%2 of locations in 2022 and at 62.2%1 in 2026, with 42.1%3 in between at the end of 2025.

Verizon and T-Mobile as the alternative to Spectrum

For the third of the city where Spectrum is the only wired provider at 100/20 Mbps, the other widely reported option is fixed wireless home internet over 5G or LTE. Verizon reports fixed wireless at 80.4% of Beaumont's locations, with 100/20 Mbps at 55.0% and advertised downloads up to 300 Mbps. T-Mobile reports 75.9%, with 100/20 at 20.1% and a top advertised download of 100 Mbps1. A tower sector's capacity is shared, so carriers can limit sign-ups by address; the FCC figures show where they report service, not where every home could join.

The gaps without any of this are small. Wired or fixed wireless service at 100/20 Mbps is missing at 4.3% of locations (1,775 homes and businesses), and 121 locations have only satellite.

Fewer phone-only households than in 2019

The Census Bureau's American Community Survey shows how Beaumont households connect, as opposed to what is available. In 2019, 28.5% of households relied only on a cellular data plan (margin of error ±3.9 percentage points) and 54.9% subscribed to cable, fiber or DSL (margin ±4.7 percentage points). In the 2025 survey the cellular-only share was 12.5% (margin ±3.6 percentage points) and the wired share 78.3% (margin ±3.7 percentage points); in both cases the ranges do not overlap. Households with no internet subscription went from 14.4%4 to 6.6%5. The survey counts households over a year; the FCC counts locations on one date.

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.
