If Fios, Verizon hands down. Symmetric, they don’t do data caps, etc.
I’m not saying they’re a great company put anything, but the less bad in my opinion.
Agreed. Unless it’s the 5g Verizon home Internet, then I’d begrudgingly to with Comcast
Exactly. Internet delivered to the home by some form of wired connection will always be better than internet delivered via cellular, regardless of whether it’s an old-school hotspot or a newer 5g router with the cellular modem built in.
As far as ISPs go, Fios is pretty good. I have them, they’re relatively cheap for 1Gbps symmetrical, I regularly speed test at like 980Mbps, I get a regular public IP (no cgnat), the pub ip my router pulls only rotates when the router power cycles, the ONT box is just Ethernet so I can use my MikroTik and not have to dick around with making an ISP supplied modem/router pass through, idk I’m happy.
Not sure if they support ipv6 in my market, I just have all that disabled on my router. I know I know, I should stand it up, but I really don’t feel like it.
Damn, it seems they only have 5G available.
Guess I’m doing Xfinity! yay… i really enjoyed having a choice of ISP in my old address. it’s really gonna fucking suck going back to random power outages with no explanation and constant disconnects.
Xfinity, because fuck you!
Either of the two fiber options would probably be better than Comcast. Ask your neighbors, if you have any, what they have.
If you’re hosting any servers like Plex you may want to make sure the fiber companies offer a static IP if they use CGnat.
