AT&T Expands Connecticut Wireless Network

AT&T has added 13 new wireless network sites at locations across Connecticut over the past eight months.

The latest expansion brings AT&T’s investment in its wireless network in Connecticut to almost $500 million since 2024.

Company officials said the investments boost reliability, coverage, speed, and overall performance enhancing wireless coverage and capacity for families, businesses, visitors, and public safety.

“We know how important it is for our customers to stay connected, especially during the summer,” said John Emra, president, AT&T Atlantic Region.

“These new network resources will help residents, businesses and visitors get the best possible experience over the AT&T network wherever they live, work and play.

And we have a responsibility unlike any other network provider to support the public safety mission by bringing Connecticut first responders greater access to the reliable connectivity they need through Band 14 and FirstNet.”

Expansion

CBIA president and CEO Chris DiPentima applauded AT&T “for its continued investment and commitment in Connecticut, enhancing the wireless experience for residents and visitors across the state.”

“Residents and businesses benefit from enhanced wireless service, as faster speeds and streamlined connectivity boost productivity, efficiencies, and opportunities for economic growth,” he said.

The new sites will serve the following locations:

• Bridgeport
• Meriden
• Milford
• Old Saybrook
• Goshen
• Greenwich
• Durham
• New Hartford
• Darien
• Stamford
• Woodstock

The expansion follows the company’s $6 million investment in a public-private partnership that upgraded wireless internet service along the the Metro North New Haven Line.

More than 30 new AT&T sites have been installed over the past several years between New Haven and the New York border, enhancing wireless coverage and capacity for commuters and riders.
