As Part of AT&Tโ€™s Project VIP Investment, More Customers to Benefit From Nationโ€™s Fastest and Most Reliable 4G LTE Network on the Latest Devices

AT&T* has expanded the nationโ€™s fastest and most reliable 4G LTE network** in Charles County, bringing more customers the latest generation of wireless network technology. AT&T launched 4G LTE in the greater Washington, DC area in November 2011, and the expanded coverage is part of its ongoing rollout across the market.

AT&T 4G LTE coverage now includes parts of Charles County such as Waldorf, St. Charles and Chapel Point.

Watch here to see several of the benefits AT&T 4G LTE provides, including:

โ€ขย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย  Faster speeds. LTE technology is capable of delivering mobile Internet speeds up to 10 times faster than 3G***. Customers can stream, download, upload and game faster than ever before.

โ€ขย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย  Reliability. AT&T not only has the nationโ€™s fastest 4G LTE network, but now also has the most reliable 4G LTE network. According to independent third-party data, AT&T has the highest success rate for delivering mobile content across nationwide 4G LTE networks.

โ€ขย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย  Cool new devices. AT&T offers several LTE-compatible devices, including new AT&T 4G LTE smartphones and tablets.

โ€ขย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย  Faster response time. LTE technology offers lower latency, or the processing time it takes to move data through a network, such as how long it takes to start downloading a webpage or file once youโ€™ve sent the request. Lower latency helps to improve services like mobile gaming, two-way video calling and telemedicine.

โ€ขย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย  More efficient use of spectrum. Wireless spectrum is a finite resource, and LTE uses spectrum more efficiently than other technologies, creating more space to carry data traffic and services and to deliver a better network experience.

ย โ€œWeโ€™ve seen positive response from customers on our 4G LTE launch, and as todayโ€™s expansion shows, weโ€™re continuing our rollout of fast 4G LTE speeds to more areas of Charles County,โ€ said J. Michael Schweder, President, AT&T Mid-Atlantic.
