Athens Residential Internet Coverage

Just inside the northern border of Alabama sits the city of Athens, with a population of about 25,000 people. A variety of high speed Internet providers have set up shop in Athens, offering plenty of options to residents and businesses alike.

AT&T is a prominent and widespread option for Athens-area residents. High speed DSL and fiber optic are available in this region, and the fiber optic network has a max download speed of 1 Gbps. Coverage stretches to reach Lester in the north, Tanner in the south, Poplar Point in the west, and Capshaw in the east.

Only a few neighborhoods fall within the Xfinity service area. Coverage is available in eastern areas like Capshaw and Oakdale Acres.

One widespread cable option in Athens is Charter. The Charter network covers all of Athens, including O'Neal, Blackburn, and Pinedale Acres.

Mediacom offers similar coverage throughout Athens. The network stops short of Lester and Poplar Creek in the west.

Several southern Athens neighborhoods enjoy coverage from WOW! Covered neighborhoods include Tanner and Tanner Crossroads.

I have had quite a few internet outages and had issues with their modem so I had to buy a new one. Customer service isn't much help.
