AT&T launches ultrafast Internet service in Cupertino

Some Cupertino residents can now turbo charge their Internet access.

AT&T on Monday announced that it has launched its new super-high-speed Internet service, dubbed GigaPower, here. Residents in certain areas of the city can now sign up for the service, which can deliver Internet speeds of up to 1 gigabit per second. That’s nearly seven times faster than the fastest broadband service Comcast offers in the area and more than 20 times faster than the speediest service AT&T commonly offered in the area.

"We’re thrilled to be the first city on the West Coast to get GigaPower," Cupertino Mayor Rod Sinks said at a news conference.
