AT&T planning faster Internet speeds in Atlanta

ATLANTA (AP) AT&T plans to bring faster Internet service to Atlanta.

That's according to a Monday announcement from Atlanta Mayor Kasim Reed. Reed says the GigaPower network provides access to the company's fastest Internet with speeds up to 1 gigabit per second.

AT&T first gave customers in Austin access to the GigaPower network and began an expansion in 2014. The company is considering expansion to up to 100 cities and municipalities in 25 areas.

Officials say AT&T customers also will get faster Wi-Fi speeds on the network.
