Green Bay in Wisconsin
Fiber was reported at 19.2%2 of Green Bay's homes and businesses on the first FCC broadband map in June 2022 and at 74.4% on June 30, 2026. Most of the new fiber belongs to TDS, which reported no service in the city in 2022. Spectrum's cable still reaches almost every address, but it is now the only wired option at 100/20 Mbps for 20.6%1 of them.
Cable everywhere, fiber from TDS and AT&T
Green Bay has 32,8301 homes and businesses on the FCC's location list, counted within the 2020 city boundary. In the June 30, 2026 data (file revision November 10, 2026), three companies supply nearly all wired internet to them:
- Spectrum covers 96.4% of locations, with cable at nearly all of them and fiber at 0.7%; its fastest advertised download is 1 Gbps.
- TDS has fiber at 64.9%, advertising downloads of up to 8 Gbps.
- AT&T covers 94.9%, with fiber at 34.4%, plus DSL over copper lines and fixed wireless across much of the city. Its service reaches 100/20 Mbps at 44.6%1.

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.
Starlink, HughesNet and Viasat appear at practically every location, as satellite does in any US city; they are excluded from every count of choice below. Being listed means the company told the FCC it can install standard service within ten business days. That is a claim about the network, not about one particular home.

Fewer addresses with Spectrum alone
In June 2022, 64.1% of the city's locations had a single wired provider offering at least 100/20 Mbps. The June 2026 figure is 21.9%, and Spectrum is that single provider everywhere it applies (20.6%). Two wired options at 100/20 Mbps now cover 45.3%; three or more cover 30.8%, against 0.0%2 in 2022. On average a Green Bay location has 2.051 wired providers at that speed.
Source: FCC, National Broadband Map, data as of June 30, 2026. Different wired providers (fiber, cable or DSL; FCC provider IDs) reporting 100 Mbps down and 20 Mbps up or more at the same location. Fixed wireless and satellite are not counted.

| Area | None | One | Two | Three or more |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Green Bay | 2.1% | 21.9% | 45.3% | 30.8% |
| Wisconsin | 13.6% | 45.9% | 34.7% | 5.8% |
| United States | 7.8% | 36.6% | 44.6% | 11.1% |
Statewide, 45.9% of Wisconsin's locations have just one such wired provider and 40.5% have two or more. Green Bay's two-or-more share, 76.0%, sits well above that and above the national 55.6%1.
Few places are left out. Wired 100/20 Mbps is missing at 690 locations; any terrestrial service at that speed, wired or fixed wireless, is missing at 64. By the BEAD program's test (lacking even 25/3 Mbps by wire or licensed fixed wireless), 51 are unserved. Not one location relies on satellite alone.
Fiber since the first FCC map
When the FCC published its first location-level map, with data as of June 30, 2022, 19.2%2 of Green Bay's locations had fiber. The December 31, 2025 filing showed 61.9%3; the June 30, 2026 filing shows 74.4%. That gain of 55.2 percentage points ranks 29th highest out of the 343 US cities with 100,000 people or more. Over just the latest six months, fiber grew by 12.5 percentage points, which ranks 13th highest1.
The provider filings show where the new fiber came from. TDS filed no Green Bay locations at all in June 2022, and today has fiber at 64.9% of them; AT&T's fiber stands at 34.4%. The city's overall fiber share is now above Madison (71.6%), Milwaukee (69.5%), Wisconsin as a whole (55.9%) and the US (62.6%1).

Copper has not disappeared. DSL, nearly all of it AT&T's, is down 15.3 percentage points since 2022, yet it still appears at 76.4% of Green Bay locations, tied for 39th highest among big cities. Because the FCC adds and removes locations between filings (Green Bay's count changed by +8311 since 2022), this page compares percentages rather than raw counts.
Overlapping fiber footprints
Add TDS's fiber share to AT&T's and the total exceeds the city's fiber share, so the two networks must run past many of the same buildings. At 25.6% of Green Bay's locations, or 8,409, at least two fiber companies report service; four years earlier that applied to 0.0%2. Among the large cities this ranks 76th highest. Statewide the figure is 7.2%, nationally 12.1%1.

The FCC data name 6 fiber filers in the city, against 22 in 2022. That tally makes the market look wider than it is. Of the 24,4231 fiber locations, nearly every one is served by TDS, AT&T or Spectrum; Bug Tussel Wireless and Nsight Telservices, for example, report fiber at only a handful of locations each. The percentages in the provider table are the better guide.
Uploads follow the fiber line
On download speed the networks look alike: a 1 Gbps download is advertised at 97.8% of locations, which Spectrum's cable network offers nearly citywide. Upload speed splits them. Gigabit service with uploads of 100 Mbps or more, the FCC's 1,000/100 tier, and symmetrical 100/100 Mbps wired service are each advertised at 74.4%, matching the fiber footprint exactly. The 1,000/100 share has climbed 55.2 percentage points since June 2022 and ranks 89th lowest1 among large cities.
| Measure | Green Bay | Wisconsin | United States | Rank among largest cities |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 Gbps download | 97.8% | 85.9% | 91.0% | 204th of 343 |

Multi-gigabit plans of 2 Gbps or more are the top tier at 73.9% of the city, compared with 18.6%2 in 2022. TDS's fiber tops out at an advertised 8 Gbps and AT&T's at 5 Gbps. Outside their fiber, Spectrum's 1 Gbps plan is the highest offer, the top tier for 23.9%1. Each figure is the maximum a provider advertises; none is a measurement.
Fixed wireless: local networks and national carriers
Bertram Communications files the broadest fixed wireless coverage in Green Bay: 90.6% of locations, every one at 100/20 Mbps or faster, top advertised download 100 Mbps. Its service is unlicensed, meaning radio links on spectrum any operator may use. That kind of service covers 90.7% of Green Bay, 32nd highest among big cities, compared with 29.6% in Wisconsin overall. Bug Tussel Wireless files 86.4%1 coverage but nothing at 100/20 Mbps.
The licensed category, where 5G home internet belongs, has 6 filers here, tied for 8th highest among big cities. T-Mobile lists 85.7% of Green Bay, reaching 100/20 Mbps on 27.1%. Verizon lists 84.3%, with 100/20 Mbps on 49.7% and an advertised ceiling of 300 Mbps; nearly all of its Green Bay footprint has appeared since June 2022. AT&T and Nsight Telservices (17.7%) file licensed service too. Licensed wireless at 100/20 Mbps or more now covers 59.6%1, against 20.4%2 four years earlier.

Subscriptions in the Census survey
Survey data measure something else: households, and what they pay for. The Census Bureau's 2025 American Community Survey estimates that 81.6% of Green Bay households had cable, fiber or DSL service (margin of error ±4.0 percentage points), while 10.6% used nothing but a cellular data plan (margin ±2.5 percentage points). Households with no subscription made up 5.7% (margin ±2.3 percentage points4), compared with 14.3% in the 2019 survey (margin ±2.6 percentage points5). The ranges set by those margins do not overlap, so the decline is clear.
