One of the compensations for moving from Santa Fe, NM to here (near
Durham, NC) is that gigabit internet is almost universal, at least in
the newer neighborhoods. We had a choice of two fiber connections at the
corner of our property.
What I’ve discovered is that there are not many sites out there that
will pump the bits out that fast, so a gigabit connection is only
marginally better than, say, 300 megabits.
Still it feels good to go to Speedtest.net and see the needle jump up to
800 megabits.

Just tested my AT&T fiber: 937 Mbps upload. Different town than

Wow - so envious. We get about 45 Mbps down, about 20 up on a good day
on Malcolm Turnbull's NBN, and even that's a marked improvement on
what we
had only 2 months ago - about 3Mbps down, 300Kbps up.
