What is the best internet provider in Mobile?
AT&T Fiber the best internet provider in Mobile, Alabama. The 100% fiber-optic connection offers fast, symmetrical upload and download speeds — the fastest in Mobile, up to 5,000Mbps — straightforward pricing, and simple service terms that include unlimited data, free equipment rental and no contract requirements.
Considering the speeds and perks, AT&T Fiber is an excellent value, but it’s not the cheapest internet available in the area. Xfinity has the cheapest internet plan in Mobile, with service starting at $20 per month for download speeds up to 75 megabits per second. Mediacom has the lowest introductory rate on high-speed gig service, starting at $55 monthly.
Technically, Verizon 5G Home Internet could offer cheaper gig internet in Mobile. Its Home Plus plan advertises speeds up to 1,000Mbps at the discounted rate of $45 per month (regularly $70) for qualifying Verizon mobile customers, but actual speeds will vary, between 85 and 1,000Mbps, depending on your location.
T-Mobile Home Internet offers a similar discount for Magenta Max customers but doesn’t match the speed potential of Verizon 5G Home Internet. Service starts at $50 per month, or $30 with the bundle discount, for speeds ranging from 72 to 245Mbps.

Our take – AT&T offers fiber and copper-based (DSL) internet in the Mobile area, but it’s the fiber service you’ll want to consider. AT&T Fiber offers a great plan selection with speeds ranging from 300 to 5,000Mbps, and all plans come with free equipment and unlimited data.

Our take – Xfinity’s cable internet covers more of the Mobile area than AT&T and has a lower starting price at $20 per month for speeds up to 75Mbps. Xfinity’s faster speed tiers, ranging from 200 to 1,200Mbps are competitively priced as well but may come with a contract and steep price increase after 12 or 24 months of service.
