What is the Access from AT&T program and how do I know if I’m eligible?
Access from AT&T is a low cost home internet service available to eligible limited income AT&T Internet and AT&T Fiber households who participate in Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), Supplemental Security Income (SSI) for California residents, National School Lunch Program, or with a household income below 200% of federal poverty guidelines. All households that qualify for the Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP) and apply the benefit to AT&T Internet or AT&T Fiber service are also eligible for Access from AT&T. Eligible households who apply the ACP benefit to Access from AT&T internet service can receive internet at no charge with AT&T Internet plans (768K-100M) and with AT&T Fiber (100M only). Speeds on AT&T Internet depend on the maximum speed available at your location. Visit https://www.att.com/internet/availability/ to check the speed available at your location.

The standard $30/ mo. Access from AT&T plan comes with unlimited monthly data. Eligible households whose maximum available speed available at their home is 10 Mbps or less and who do not need unlimited monthly data may qualify for a lower priced offer. (See additional FAQ below for more information.) A Wi-Fi gateway/modem and installation are included with all Access from AT&T plans at no charge.

Eligible AT&T DSL customers can also qualify for the lower priced Access from AT&T offer, which can also be used in combination with the ACP benefit. AT&T Fixed Wireless Internet and other wireless services are not eligible for Access from AT&T.
