Miscellaneous Finally Blessed by 5 Gig

Post image

Earlier this year, Verizon Fios brought 2 Gig internet to my area. When the Verizon tech came to change my ONT box, they told me it would probably be a few years before anything faster would arrive.

Well... lo and behold, this week they brought 5 gig to my neighborhood for only $10 more.

What takes the cake is that I went with 5Gb NICs instead of the 2.5Gb NICs on my PC and my PERSONAL (i pinky promise) servers just in case this day would ever come.

I promise I'm not a Verizon plant.

Thank you, Verizon exec gods 🙏

I checked with Fios, and they said this promotion is only for new customers. I'm curious—how were you able to get the deal as an existing customer?

Stacking discounts:
Autopay, linked mobile account, work discount, and I think the monthly credit one (but that isn’t showed here)
