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.
A provider's share here is the share of locations where it reports that it serves or could install service within ten business days. That share describes the city, not one street, and the reports can be challenged on the FCC map.
A third wire since 2022
In June 2022, Round Rock looked like many Texas suburbs. Spectrum's cable reached almost every location, fiber from any provider was reported at 46.8% of them, and 45.3%2 had only one wired provider offering 100/20 Mbps.
Four years later, fiber reaches 93.3%, a rise of 46.4 percentage points, the 41st highest increase among the 343 cities of 100,000 or more. The largest newcomer is Google Fiber, which went from no reported locations to 27,318. The single-wire share fell to 5.2%, and the number of providers reporting fiber somewhere in the city went from 32 to 61.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fiber available | 46.8% | 87.4% | 93.3% | 46.4 pts |

| Three or more wired choices | 0.1% | 38.5% | 46.4% | 46.4 pts |
Most of that change was already in place by December 31, 2025, when fiber was reported at 87.4%3; the latest release added 5.9 percentage points1 more.
Two fiber networks at almost half of locations
Where two fiber footprints overlap (Google Fiber's and AT&T's are the largest), a home or business can choose between two fiber networks. That is the case at 45.3% of Round Rock's locations (rank among large cities: 34th highest), compared with 31.4% in Austin, 18.2% across Texas and 12.1%1 nationally. In June 2022 the share was 0.2%2.
At the same time, 46.4% of locations have three or more wired providers at 100/20 Mbps, and 45.9% have exactly two. Spectrum is the only wired provider at that speed at 4.0%1 of locations.

Georgetown, next door, is a different city for internet
The suburbs north of Austin do not share one pattern. In Georgetown, the next city of 100,000 or more to the north, fiber is reported at 38.5% of locations, two fiber networks at 3.4%, and 59.5% of locations have only one wired provider at 100/20 Mbps. Its most widespread provider is Optimum, not Spectrum. Across Williamson County, fiber is reported at 66.2%1 of locations.

Multi-gigabit tiers and symmetrical service
With fiber at most addresses, the fastest advertised download at 84.7% of locations is 2 Gbps or more, up from 27.5% in June 2022. Google Fiber advertises up to 8 Gbps and AT&T up to 5 Gbps; Spectrum's maximum is 1 Gbps. Symmetrical wired service of at least 100/100 Mbps is reported at 93.3%1 of locations, against 46.8%2 in 2022. All of these are maximum advertised speeds reported by providers, not measurements.

Fixed wireless: the carriers and VTX
Verizon reports home internet over its cellular network at 85.9% of locations, with 100/20 Mbps at 49.0%; T-Mobile reports 86.0%, with 100/20 at 22.7%1. Verizon's reported footprint in the city was a fraction of that in June 2022. Carriers limit sign-ups where a tower sector is full, so these shares show where service is reported, not where every household could subscribe at once.
Smaller wireless companies cover parts of the city. VTX Communications, which reported no Round Rock locations in 2022, now reports 20.7%, with advertised downloads up to 400 Mbps. Rise Broadband reports 16.1% and Western Broadband 3.9%. Unlicensed fixed wireless as a whole reaches 31.0%1 of locations, up from 15.0%2.
The few addresses without a fast wire
927 locations, 2.5% of the city, have no wired provider at 100/20 Mbps. For 401 of them, fixed wireless is the only service at that speed, and 13 locations have satellite alone. The FCC counts 30 locations as unserved under the BEAD definition, without reliable 25/3 Mbps service. Since June 2022 the FCC's list of locations in the city has changed by +3,3291.
Households: high wired subscription
In the Census Bureau's 2025 American Community Survey, 88.0% of Round Rock households subscribed to cable, fiber or DSL (margin of error ±3.0 percentage points), tied for 14th highest among large cities by point estimate. 7.3% relied only on a cellular data plan (margin ±2.3 percentage points) and 3.2% had no internet subscription (margin ±2.0 percentage points4). The survey counts households over a year and the FCC counts locations on one date, so the two sets of figures are not directly comparable.

Checking one address in Round Rock
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.
