Living in Oakland I wish I could replace my slow, expensive and high-latency Comcast broadband connection with Fiber. It is crazy that we in silicon valley practically have no competition.

- aeontech 9y agoNot that I am a big fan of AT&T, but they have started offering fiber gigabit in Oakland over the past year. I switched from Comcast in December. Wish Sonic or Monkeybrains would become available here.
- asabjorn 9y agoWhat did you switch to?
- aeontech 9y agoTo AT&T fiber, for now, pending a better option.
- malyk 9y agoI switched a couple of months ago from DSL to AT&T fiber and it's been fantastic. Helped that I was already an AT&T phone customer, but the fiber hasn't been available for that long, so it was nice discovery when I went to pick up my wife's iphone.
- passthefist 9y agoWhen I was in Oakland I was able to get Webpass with my building. $500/yr and 200mbit, though in practice it was actually higher. Never had a problem real with them, and their service was great. Per latency, my ping when playing games was sub 20 (but to be fair the servers were in California).
