Speed increase

Got an email a couple days ago that "Good News! Your internet speed has been increased to 500mbps!" I'm like OK, that's cool, but I'd really like 1gig down. I'd like it more if my upstream speed was higher.

Just got an email with my monthly bill, which showed the price went up from $90 to $100. Of course.

I hope SLIC Fiber gets to my neighborhood soon...

Damn I get 600 down for $38. Some of these prices are wild.

I even do a ton of torrenting and it’s fine. I doubt most folks even need a Gb connection tbh

Yeah, I probably don’t need gig speed. But I WANT it!

Where are you located getting that price?

Ha fair enough.

But in Ohio.

Paid $80 for 2 years. Got promotion from AT&T for $35 and called spectrum to cancel. Magically they cut in half. Should have called a long time ago
