AT&T Internet Speed Test FAQ
AT&T's average Internet speeds are based on the last twelve months of speed test data. Speed tests we analyze to show statistics for AT&T on BroadbandNow are sourced from the M-Labs database, which aggregates AT&T speed tests run on BroadbandNow as well as in Google's search result tools. We use IP-verification to match visitor IP addresses to known AT&T Internet IP addresses. This helps us avoid manipulation of the results from repeat or non-network users.

AT&T Internet Download and Upload Speeds
AT&T DSL is a legacy internet access service based on Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) digital subscriber line (DSL) technology. The legacy nature of the technology involved means that AT&T cannot test 'Actual Speed' for AT&T DSL using the same software tool described above for IPBB and Fiber. Internet speed tests, like this one or the test found at SpeedTest.net, measure the latter, or the speed reaching the device running the test. These test results are often lower than your plan speed due to various factors outside your Internet provider's control, including WiFi conditions and device capabilities. AT&T Fiber SM is the technology that powers our fastest residential internet plans. Like all AT&T Internet services, availability for these plans depends on location. Check out a map of AT&T Fiber coverage areas. To check AT&T speed, head over to the top of this page and click the 'Go' button to start testing your speed. The process takes a couple of seconds and shows a complete report. You can perform as many speed tests as you want. There is no limit on how fast is your Internet connection.
Download speeds are higher than upload speeds on most of AT&T's Internet plans. Prioritizing download speeds is normal because most customers request more data than they transmit in the form of video, websites, etc. AT&T has been building out true 'fiber to the home' networks in recent years. In AT&T Fiber areas, customers can get upload speeds that equal their download speeds. This is called symmetrical speed, as opposed to the asymmetrical speeds on AT&T's IPBB plans.
