AT&T buys most of Lumen’s business, more internet for Nebraskans

Nebraska residents are gaining more internet options in the coming years.

AT&T has agreed to buy most of Lumen’s fiber internet business for nearly 6-billion dollars.

A deal between AT&T and Lumen, who operates as Century Link and Quantum Fiber in 11 states, shows a potential benefit to the Omaha area.

The agreement is still pending approval, but will give a wider selection of choices to Nebraska residents.
