The sad thing is have my ISP's "higher package" 10mpbs down and 1up.. there highest package is like 35 down and 5 up.. there super expensive.. what do u expect from a rural provider? Really good speeds for a really small town like mine.. its nice to have DSL. Wish I could get cable for cheaper or like qwest dsl.
Hey i have a few questions. im getting the 35/35 package and i have 3 xbox's and like 8 computer will i beable to go on like 4 computer and all the xboxs at the same time and still have good connection?
@pspguy4 b/c the Verizon modem that comes with fios is shit. Get a netgear and youll be getting the same speeds as this guy. The WiFi on the Verizon isn't very good.
@Commando295 First of all verizon installs a "Router" when you order Fios. Not a modem.The guy is getting 25 Meg because thats what hes paying for (Fios Extreme) . It doesnt matter what router you hook up. It will make no difference at all to the speed. However you cant just remove the Fios router because the Fios Tv will not work properly.
In england i pay £25 for 50 mb/s down 5 mb/s up on virgin media cable, thats about $40.
Its fiberoptic to the street cabinet so not true fiberoptic like fios, but we can receive speed up to 100 mb/s and get them full speed and virgin are trailing 1.5 GB/s.
Seems like you get hit pretty hard for internet in america
@abhinav7333 Technically none at all; Because of the nature of cable being shared though between 9 am and 9 pm, if you are downloading, uploading enough to cause slow down in your area they cap the speed of your line for a few hrs, but ive never had that happen yet I think thats in areas which are over subscribd untill they get the arae upgraded :D
@thomasslaughter93 Hey! You aren't kidding. $90 bucks here for 55/5.5 Mbps. in the UK that's £55. I wish it was a little cheaper. Being stuck with tethering from my iPhone 4 with 1.3 Mbps for three years makes me not care about the higher price for dedicated internet. Wooo!
btw, the UK would be awesome to live in for a bit. :) My uncle was stationed there for the US Air force. Looked awesome!
@fanfinmiami How are you getting these speeds on WiFi? I have FiOS with the 35/35 plan and over WiFi I get 23mbps down and 17mbps up. The only way I am able to get my true speed is to connect my computer directly with ethernet I get 45mbps down and 40mbps up.
@pspguy4 I am pretty close to the router, but that shouldn't be a problem. I can get these speeds while downstairs as well. Even the installation guy was surprised. I haven't tried Ethernet, but if you do have a lot of WiFi devices connected to the router, it can slow it down.

We were paying like $185, and Verizon offered about $169. I am not sure if there are hidden fees involved, it hasn't been a month yet.
