Chattanooga Residential Internet Coverage

Located along the southern border of Tennessee, the city of Chattannooga has a population of almost 200,000 people, a major airport, and a growing tourism industry.

Through Centurylink Prism, certain parts of eastern Chattanooga enjoy the high speeds of fiber internet. The service area is relatively small, covering Harrison and Hamilville. The CenturyLink DSL network is slightly larger, reaching as far south as Bonny Oaks Drive.

Both fiber internet and DSL are provided by AT&T. Combined, these networks reach every part of Chattanooga, from Northwoods and Oak Hill North to Clifton Hills and Saint Elmo in the south.

Similarly, Xfinity brings high-speed cable coverage to all of Chattanooga, as does EPB. Charter has a slightly smaller network, running west of Tennessee River and east of the Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport. There is little coverage in the central part of Chattanooga through Charter, although there is some service along the southern Tennessee border.
