We have a couple fiber companies in our town (USA), and we have been shopping for internet. Currently we have fiber from AT&T.
One is over a mile down the road and they want $90,000 to connect and then $1750 a month for 1gbps. Another company is two blocks away, they will only charge $8,000 to connect and it’s $1,550 a month for the same speed.
Problem is there aren’t many other companies in the area that want service, so we would end up paying all the buildout costs. The other business are small retail, restaurants and shops that don’t need more than coax (150/20 or whatever for $79/month) from Spectrum.
- xupybd 5y agoI'm in New Zealand, a small island nation. I have 1gbps for around $70 USD per month. The install was free. I get a VoIP phone and Prime video subscription included. Most of my devices are wireless so I really don't take advantage of the speed.
- timClicks 5y agoWhich ISP are you with?
- xupybd 5y ago2 Degree's. They bundled it all with my cell plan.
- hackcasual 5y agoI hit ~400mbps on my pixel 4a's wifi with 802.11ac in a moderately congested environment. With WiFi 6 I would probably saturate
- Jnr 5y agoI pay about 17 USD for 1 Gbps in Europe.
