    lol I’ve never had anything over 12Mb/s. Currently have 8Mb/s, which costs roughly half than what I use to pay for 500kb/s

    I would love to have 100Mb/s. Hell even half that.

      It’s interesting. I have a remote place (not where I live) in the least populated, podunkest county in the state (which is saying something). And we were still able to get fibre and 50Mbps out there (and it could be higher, but not really worth the extra money since it’s rarely used).

      Still within a couple hours of a big city, though. Guessing you’re further away than that, or something?

        The 500kbps was 15 minutes outside of a metro area of 2.5 million lol

        It was decades of CenturyLink making sure no one else moved in on their turf.

        Where I’m at now the fiber is a couple of miles away and no cable, but 8Mbps feels lightning fast after CenturyLink lol

      That’s enough to watch exactly one 1080p 30fps stream on YouTube and literally nothing else.
