I tried signing up for Brightspeed but we had the situation where Lumen (cabling contractors) wanted to charge is over $1400 to hook it up to our house. Why it was so expensive, no idea. I called Brightspeed, cancelled the install, and let them know that there's no way anyone is gonna sign up for that service with those install fees. Hopefully they figure that out.

Meanwhile, AT&T fiber just became available in our neighborhood. Got it installed the next day. No install fees. 500Mb/s for $65/mo. Been great so far!

Honestly, most people won't need more than that. Hell, most people probably can't even use faster than that on wifi.
