AT&T Bundles Fiber and 5G Home Internet Into Build-A-Plan From $70 a Month

3 articles · Updated · Android Authority · Jun 30

Summary

  • $70 a month is AT&T’s new starting price for a combined Build-A-Plan package that adds home internet to its mobile service beginning July 7.
  • The entry bundle pairs the $15 wireless base tier and $20 unlimited mobile data option with either AT&T Fiber 300 or 5G-based Internet Air for $35.
  • AT&T is pitching the change as a billing and account-management simplification, extending the modular plan it launched in May beyond mobile into a single home-and-wireless offering.
  • Build-A-Plan still has limits: accounts are capped at one line, and standard video streaming stays at 480p unless customers pay for a premium data tier.
  • The expansion pushes AT&T further into converged broadband-and-wireless bundles, using Internet Air as an alternative where fiber is unavailable.
