Now, practically speaking, fiber to a gigabit network connection should be all you need, but it's practically not much of a difference from what Comcast offers in our area. It's just a marketing point.
- jonknee 17y agoIt's a big difference because Comcast caps your speed. For FiOS there's an ethernet cable coming out of the box that the fiber cable goes into and it only goes as fast as you pay for, topping out at 50Mbps (for $145/mo). Apparently Google will support gigabit ethernet at uncapped speeds. Huge upgrade.
