How does Cricket 5G Home Internet work?

Cricket 5G Home Internet uses a technology called Fixed Wireless Access (FWA) to deliver internet service to your home. Unlike traditional internet services that require cable or fiber lines, FWA uses AT&T's 5G wireless network to connect your home to the internet.

How Does It Work?

  1. A nearby cellular tower transmits a 5G or LTE signal.
  2. Your Cricket gateway receives that signal at your service address.
  3. The gateway converts the wireless signal into a Wi‑Fi network for your home.
  4. Your devices connect to the gateway just like they would with a traditional router.

Why Customers Choose Fixed Wireless Access

  • Fast and reliable connectivity
  • Easy self-setup
  • No new wires required
  • Great for areas with limited broadband options
  • One gateway for your entire home

With Cricket 5G Home Internet, you get home internet service that is simple to set up, easy to manage, and powered by AT&T’s wireless network.
