Yeah, my core network is 10 Gig and I have my desktop computers connected at either 10 or 2.5 Gig. So that's full speed. Wireless is limited to just 1 gig for the most part. I do have 1x 6e access point which my couple of compatible devices can use and get faster than gig downloads.

It was nice during the initial rollout before they had QoS set up. I was getting over 4 Gbit symmetric but that didn't last for too long.

2000/2000 Mbit fiber without a cap for $95/mo. in Maine, US.

This does feel a bit surreal though as prior to this my options were 3/.5 Mbit DSL for $75/mo. (bonding wasn't an option, no plans by ISP to upgrade), then 25/10 Mbit fixed wireless for $95 /mo. from a local provider (which worked when it felt like it and then was undergoing "maintenance" for weeks at a time making it unusable), then paying Spectrum a $5500+ ransom to run Cable down my driveway and then ultimately pay $115/mo. for 300/20 Mbit. Spectrum didn't have a cap due to the Charter -> TWC acquisition consent decree but I'm sure it was coming after that expired.

When fiber came to town everything else suddenly got cheaper but screw them, they kept raising the rates and fees when there wasn't any meaningful competition. Fidium didn't even charge me an install fee and I'm not under a contract. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

A cross between Legend of Zelda exploration and discovery with Souls-like combat. Very tight controls. Fantastic art and soundtrack.
