In exchange for no wifi, those international aircraft have lie flat seats and free movies on the PTVs. Seems like a good trade off to me.

Hey now. Almost all of my travel is for business yet I rarely use wifi. Some of us business travelers appreciate some unconnected downtime. Personally, I'd rather have a comfortable F seat with no wifi. The email can wait until I land.

Like I said before, you're on a domestic flight using an international configured aircraft. Every domestic configured 767 has wifi. There are only a handful of domestic flights that don't have wifi anymore and they're the ones using international aircraft. ATL-LAX flights on the A330 or 777 are the same. It's a small consolation if you need wifi on your flight but DLmedalliongold is correct.

A small point, but if this is so hard one wonders why not just go with the domestic install on the international planes? They are now used for a whole set of important domestic routes. And on flights from ATL, you are over the 48 states for 3+ hours headed for Europe and 4+ hours headed to Asia.
Reception also seems pretty good well beyond US borders, I recently was using Go-go while over Pachuca, Mexico, very close to MEX -- that was unusual but it always works for a distance well south of the border.

All 16 domestic 767-300s are equipped with the Gogo ATG system.
19 of 22 767-300ERs (the 76Z fleet with 26 BE seats) are equipped with Gogo ATG-4. This is an interim solution as we work toward certifying and installing the satellite system across the international fleet.
