WASHINGTON, Oct. 23, 2024 – AT&T’s fixed wireless product continued to add subscribers in the third quarter, but not quite as quickly as analysts had expected.

The company saw 135,000 new consumer customers on its Internet Air service, a bit lower than the expected 146,000. It brings the total to 477,000 subscribers since AT&T launched the product in August of last year.

While the service is still ramping up, John Stankey, the company’s CEO, reiterated that AT&T isn’t aiming for a fixed wireless customer base on par with the other two major wireless carriers. T-mobile and Verizon count 5.5 million and 4.2 million such subscribers respectively.
