The best internet deal I've come across in Abilene, Texas, is a Visa Reward Card up to $150 when I sign up for AT&T Fiber. I can get $50 with the purchase of the 300 plan, $100 for the 500 plan, or $150 for the 1 Gig or higher plan. This offer expires 9/30/2025.

On top of that, I can also take advantage of a 20% monthly discount if I bundle internet with AT&T's unlimited wireless service. Plus, AT&T will cover my cancellation fee in full if I cancel my current provider and switch to AT&T Fiber. See AT&T's best deals below or find more in this AT&T Fiber deals page.

  • Six months of AT&T Fiber for free with a mobile plan and phone purchase 
  • 20% monthly discount on wireless and internet bundle

T-Mobile 5G Home Internet may have more fluctuating speeds than fiber or cable internet connections, but it’s affordable, incredibly easy to set up, and quite reliable, especially if I'm close to a 5G tower.

I can also snag a $15 monthly discount when I combine internet with a T-Mobile cell phone plan. And I really like that T-Mobile now offers a five-year price guarantee for both 5G Home Internet and Experience mobile plans.
