Backup internet options in Miami
Xfinity (97% of homes) and AT&T (89%) each report service to more than half of Miami homes. At an address that can get both, they run on separate lines.
Home 5G and fixed-wireless plans from T-Mobile Home Internet (82%) and Verizon (79%) report coverage of Miami homes (Verizon’s figure combines Fios fiber and 5G Home). They run over cell towers rather than cable or fiber, so they can work when a wired network is down. Cell coverage by area is 100% for 4G LTE and 98.8% for 5G.
About 11.5% of Miami households, roughly 22,400 homes, get online only through a cell plan. For them a mobile outage is an internet outage.
Power and weather behind internet outages in Miami
Florida Power & Light (FPL) customers averaged 702 minutes without power in 2024, across 1.04 interruptions each, against 1,322 minutes for Florida as a whole. Cable nodes and fiber cabinets run on batteries that last hours, not days, so a long power cut can take internet down even for homes whose own power has returned. See Miami power outages when both go out together.
Miami-Dade County logged 353 storm reports since 2015, most often flood, thunderstorm wind, and hail. Reports peak in May. Power outages were named in 15 of those storm episodes. Wind, ice and flooding damage poles and buried lines, which is how a storm turns into an internet outage as well as a power outage.
Fiber reports reach 60.2% of Miami homes, cable 92.9% and copper lines 76.7%. Where fiber runs to the home, a red or blinking LOS light on the optical terminal points to a line problem that a restart will not fix.
