    not top of the line

    1 gig symmetrical

    Mf I’m over here with 100/10 dsl in a suburban market, and you’re like ‘meh could be better’ to what I am like ‘I would literally kill for that’

    A competing company offers faster speeds but last time I checked, it was around $300 a month for better speeds while retaining ‘small business’ service (to sidestep data caps). My isp has gig fiber… 4 miles away… and isn’t expanding it. Kill me.

      well he’s not wrong. Where I live, I have 8/8… gbps… Which is likely near top of the line for residential… but I know of a few places in the USA that have even more. Hell I’ve seen a property in rural Tennessee that has 10/10gbps.

      it was around $300 a month for better speeds

      Yeah no… I pay 165 for my 8/8.
