I was just reading up on a new piece on google fiber..
They'll offer a 5mpbs connection for a onetime install fee of 300$ not bad for those who can't afford much and need a connection for the basic life things now. Research and communication.

Nice....
US ISP's will never do that. CC spent untold Millions going to D3 and all they accomplished was to price those speeds far out of reach of their customers. I would be willing to bet a months pay that if just 50% of CC's customers ordered a 50 Mb tier all at once that their system would not be able to handle the load! When I do get the rare opportunity to test nowadays I always do a node scan tosee what cfg's are being used and lately, all I see is an ocean of silvers and intenet essentials. THAT is why speeds have jumped up since the D# upgrade. No one will pay the high monthly fees for running a D3 cm to it's actual potential. Kinda sad to realise that....
