They are doing some fiber work in my area (L/A) cant wait for it to go live so I can ditch Spectrum finally. Honestly 2GB is overkill, 1/1 is more than most anyone would ever need.

I get giddy everytime I see the crews out laying line. I also cannot wait to ditch Spectrum in L-A!!

I (Lisbon/Topsham) had spectrum, hated it, paid $90 for 250 mbs and the service dropped out for 10-30 seconds. Slow ass internet.

We switched to Fidium (free install) it’s $70/mo =12 months- 1GB DL /1GB UL. Seriously I downloaded a 6gb update on my Xbox AND IT TOOK MINUTES. I used to set up and only do updates overnight.

I was watching 160-200 MBS DL speed at peak time. On its best day of spectrum I got up to like 25-40 mbs. The app is usable (4.5 stars) and I called Fidium and didn’t wait long and spoke to a person and he explained my new billing cycle and the app.

You can get an OK multiport 10g switch for like $500. If you just want one in one out it's more like $150

Laptops, desktops, phones (not sure any smartphones support 2gbit) as well.
