I've been wanting to change 100 for something faster for 4 years now. But for now, 100 is enough for me, and I don't want to overpay. You can consider my district center as a rural area.
Still, they couldn't resist and at the end of the article they added about the president and democracy...
By the way, the next article on the same site below about Pornhub in Texas is also interesting.
Fossapup OS, Ryzen 5 3600 CPU, 64 GB RAM, GeForce GTX 1050 Ti 4 GB, Sound Blaster Audigy Rx with amplifier + Yamaha speakers for loud sound, USB Sound Blaster X-Fi Surround 5.1 Pro V3 + headphones for quiet sound.

I do not care what they call whatever!
But if I am paying for a specific speed that is what I should be able to get.
I am paying for 300 MB download speed, but you will never see that over WIFI .
Only way I really get it is with Ethernet connection cable directly to a computer.
Do something useful FCC.
Stop the ability for services to throttle

The things you do not tell us, are usually the clue to fixing the problem.
When I was a kid, I wanted to be older.
This is not what I expected

Personally, the speed provided is 500 Mb/s for me. I almost always reach 475 Mb/s on wifi
