Enter your ZIP code on Konecteaze or run each provider's address checker to confirm which one (or both) actually serves your home.

How do I switch from AT&T to Google Fiber (or the other way)?

Order the new service first and confirm an installation date before cancelling the old one, so you are never offline.

If you are under contract, ask about early-termination charges before scheduling.
