AT&T Investments Connect Communities

In New Jersey, we invested more than $1.1 billion in our wireless and wireline networks from 2019-2021.

We know how important it is for our customers to stay connected. That’s why we’re focused on boosting network reliability and capacity as we expand our network nationwide. This helps residents get the best possible experience over the AT&T network where they live, work and play, as well as supporting first responders on FirstNet^®.

Committed to expanding connectivity, our investment focuses on all network layers—from 5G to FirstNet.

• Unlocking the Power of 5G: AT&T is America’s Most Reliable 5G Network¹. AT&T currently offers different flavors of 5G*, which helps enable the network to reach its full potential, including:
