Just got gigabit internet today!

fuck you

 

Comcast has a 2 gigabit plan, but it's $300 a month. If there was a 1gb plan for half of that price, i'd shit-can fios and go with internet only.

That's actually not that far off in price, it's $175 a month here.

I pay $40 a month for 300/300 up/down. I could pay $60 for gig, but honestly there's few people that will use it to the extent that 1gig gives you. I'm extremely happy with 300/300, also my ping is always 1-2 :)

If I moved downtown Toronto there is a small company that has emerged, they use only their own networks (no sharing / renting off others infrastructure), and they offer 250/250 for $50, 500/500 for $75 or 1000/1000 for $100. (All CAD, so about $38-$76 USD) 

Unfortunately, they are only in big condos so far (rolling out as fast as they can, I guess it takes time to lay that much fiber!)

 

With my provider, Bell, it's $140 for 1000/100... I was like, who cares about 1gbps dl, it's the ul I want!....
