AT&T Yahoo! is an information service from SBC Internet Services. It is a partnership between AT&T, Inc. and Yahoo! Inc. to provide co-branded dial-up and DSL Internet service.

The AT&T Yahoo! high-speed service is only offered to customers who receive telephone service from the 9 Bell Operating Companies of AT&T.

From 2003 to January 1, 2006 the ISP was known as SBC Yahoo!; due to the SBC and AT&T merger, its name was changed.

Other ISPs owned by AT&T include Prodigy, whose customers were urged to migrate to the SBC Yahoo! service, and AT&T Worldnet, which still exists after the SBC/AT&T merger to serve customers not in SBC's existing service areas. AT&T also used to provide broadband Internet through cable under its AT&T Broadband division; that division was sold to Comcast in 2002.

Yahoo! also provides Internet service with other companies besides AT&T, such as Verizon and Rogers Communications in Canada as Verizon Yahoo! and Rogers Yahoo! respectively.
