Comcast says Xfinity offers 10G home internet, but the term "10G" is hazy and potentially misleading—especially because it has no relation to 5G for cell phones.

    Yeah it’s total marketing nonsense, always have to be informed as a customer and not fall into that trap. Always chose fiber if available, if you have to suck it up with cable, check the actual speed you’re getting.

    WiFi hotstpot through your phone provider can be a solution, however many providers have a cap on hotspot data in fine print even with unlimited data plans. Check that.

      The day I moved to my current place and had the choice of fiber or cable, I felt so free. It’s so nice to have real competition.
