AT&T has halted plans to install a high-speed Internet network in Johnson County and other cities across the U.S., Reuters reports. Locally, AT&T planned to install the network in Overland Park, Leawood, Lenexa and Shawnee.

With net neutrality rules being in a state of flux, AT&T says investing in a new network is too risky.
"We can't go out and invest that kind of money deploying fiber to 100 cities not knowing under what rules those investments will be governed," AT&T CEO Randall Stephenson said at an analyst conference.
AT&T says it won't move forward with the network until the net neutrality issue is resolved.
