I can't be sure about this one, but generally, with modern full-featured phones you can e-mail a short MP3 file from your computer to your phone via the Internet, save it, and use it as a ringtone. Others should be able to supply the details.
I don't know how to get the ringtone into your AT&T telephone but here is how to create a 20 second ringtone from any MP3 song on your computer that won't blow your telephone speaker ...... (this I got off the Internet a few years back so I don't know whom to give proper credit to) .......
IMPORT MP3:
CHOOSE MP3 SNIPPET:
DELETE THE REST:
REMOVE STEREO:
FADE & FILTER:
EXPORT:
This creates a good loud 20 second mono ringtone at the right bitrate and with the right frequencies so as not to destroy your telephone speaker.
How you then get this ringtone from your computer into your telephone is a mystery for me and best left for the others here to describe.

Buy Motorola's "Phone Tools" software, available at their online store. It does a bunch of other fun stuff like photo transfer over USB. Most important for me, it lets you charge your phone from your computer's USB port.
Note that the MP3 to ringtone function does not work with phones whose carrier's lock this function (e.g. Verizon). I've done it with a AT&T RAZR.
