It's also kinda flaky depending on the condition of your existing wiring.
I believe you, I'm just curious how they can offer that speed unless they drop a new wire bundle to the house. Their website says 40 mpbs is available to me with a 5 mpbs upload speed in my area.

The amount of fine print that is disclaimed with all the selections they offer on their website is comical.

If nothing else I need to wrangle with Comcast to get the price down. They're raising my service charge $3 a month as of 1/1.
