Can confirm, my ISP is fiber out in a rural area, run by the rural electric company from a couple counties over and it’s pretty decent. Not top of the line stuff, offers either 100 megabit or 1 gigabit symmetrical for a home plan, but it’s much better than the fixed point wireless that was the best previous option and maxed out at 100 down/20 up for the highest tier plan, and that was only if you could get clear line of sight to the transmitter (Would sometimes go down if it was raining hard or it was windy or something as something could block line of sight or misalign the transmitter/receiver on one end of the connection or the other)
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.
