Here's our plans on Fiber.. 

I'm considering offering a very low tier with high install (to cover 
construction costs).
$10/mth
$400 install
10Mbit/10Mbit

but currently here we are...

Basic Fiber 
25Mbit/25Mbit
$44.95
Professional Fiber 
50Mbit/50Mbit
$64.95
Super Fiber 100 
100Mbit/100Mbit
$99.95
Super Fiber 200 
200Mbit/200Mbit
$159.95


In the next 6 months, we will give more and eliminate a plan....but probably.
Professional Fiber 

100Mbit/100Mbit
$45.95
Super Fiber 200 
200Mbit/200Mbit
$99.95
Super Fiber 300 
300Mbit/300Mbit
$159.95

I expect that 6-12 months following that...depending on the competition 
(TWC/ATT)...
Professional Fiber 

200Mbit/200Mbit
$45.95
Super Fiber 500 
500Mbit/500Mbit
$99.95
Super Fiber 1000 
1000Mbit/1000Mbit
$159.95

Our cost of bandwidth the higher we go, is considerably less.  We'll be 
somewhere close to $.40/Mbit in costs to get that to our facility.


Regards,
Chuck

  Not that what we have seen.  Fiber installations have been more expensive for

  That depends on the area. Also, the costs are going *DOWN*

  EPB has 100Mbps FD FTTH for $57.99/mo. 1Gbps is $69.99/mo. 10Gbps is $299/mo

  US Internet is 50Mbps for $39.95/mo, 100Mbps for $47.95/mo, 1Gbps for $65/mo 
2.5Gbps for $99/mo, 5Gbps for $199/mo, and 10Gbps is $399/mo

  CSpire is $70/mo for 1Gbps wireless (not sure how they are providing this), 
and $80/mo for 1Gbps

  AT&T is 80Mbps for $80/mo, or 1Gbps for $110/mo - down to $80/mo for 1Gbps in 
markets where it competes or plans to compete with Google Fiber (which is 
$70/mo for 1Gbps). That's 18 markets today, 23 markets in 1st part of the year

  Here's the Comcast xfinity 2Gbps map (what they claim anyway):
  http://www.xfinity.com/multi-gig-offers.html

  DOCSIS 3.1 rollouts are happening now, as well as G.FAST.

  Sonic in California has also been rolling out 1Gbps FTTH, although I am 
unsure of their pricing.

  I wouldn't be surprised to see at least 250Mbps and up in 50+ major US 
markets by the end of the year, for under $75/mo.
