In 2023, Comcast held the largest broadband subscriber base in the United States, boasting over 32.3 million subscribers, solidifying its position as the leading cable internet provider in the country with a consistently growing subscriber count. When it came to wired internet, AT&T's broadband subscriber base in the U.S. has experienced a gradual decline, with approximately 15.3 million subscribers by the fourth quarter of 2023. This represents a decrease of over 100 thousand subscribers compared to the same period in the previous year. Despite this decline, AT&T has maintained its position as the leading U.S. telephone company in terms of wired broadband internet subscribers since 2011.
