That's Romania. But to be honest, every country in Europe has god-tier internet speeds and no data caps. ISPs basically built Fiber-to-home or at least Fiber-to-residential-building out, so they can provide almost unlimited speeds for cheap.

Dunno, jews being jews I guess.
Like with DSL, DOCSIS it's understandable. But with FTTH (fiber)...
Digi uses a 1gbps lan cable from their switch, while Invitel simply pulls a fiber into your home and connects that into the modem itself.

I prefer the lan method, easier to fix, less prone to break.

I have FTTH in the US, i prefer having an ONT unit at my house that converts to Ethernet.

That way when they upgrade to 10gbps+ they just replace my ONT with a newer one. With Ethernet they need to run CAT6a replacing all the old CAT5e. It's not hugely expensive but it takes time. Whereas my ISP would just take out the old ONT and replace it with a new one. Then change out the ~6 feet of CAT5e with CAT6a.

Both options are good, but one is easier to upgrade.
>>
>>61605367
> 10gbps upgrade
yeeeeeeeeeeeah
I don't think that's gonna happen soon, 1gbps is still the fastest option... it will be years IMO 'til they migrate. With that said I am 100% happy if I have 100mbps upload/download, that's like more than enough for anything.
>>
>>61605435
My ISP is doing backbone upgrades currently to support 40/10gbps and eventually 80/40gbps. With plans to offer symmetric 10/10gbps by ~2021

>>
>>61605435
There are one or two ISPs in the US that have announced plans for 10gbps by about 2020, so it's not too far off. Though it'll be awhile before those speeds become achievable for residential customers.

I meant in general. I am aware of a few exceptional providers with great speeds. But the "normal internet" that is available to the wide public is much worse. Data caps, the monopoly by shit providers, huge pings, high subscription fee, etc.

>>61605557
What about data caps though? It's not even a thing in Europe for example since 2000-2005 or so.
>>

>It's not even a thing in Europe

Except it is. Seen plenty of Yuro ISP's with data caps.

Data caps don't exist with FTTH in the US.

Even Comcast, the worst offender in all this, doesn't have data caps on their FTTH service.

Never even met a person in the past 10 years who even had one. Mobile internet, yeah. But normal? No.

>FTTH is not widespread/not the norm though. There is no cap here (DSL, Cable, wireless)
Fair enough but if you look at regions of the US with similar population density to your country, it's a LOT closer than you're pretending. Yes FTTH doesn't exist in many areas of the country, but our country is the same size as Europe with less than half the population. Of course our internet isn't as good, it would be prohibitively expensive to even try to match Europe.

NZ has fiber to post of the country and most of it is capable of gigabit.

Verizon provides TRUE 1/1gig internet.

In Yurocuck land, their "gigabit" internet is like 500/200, or 1/500 or some BS. Never true 1/1 like ATT, Verizon, and other American ISP's.

Yup, that's one good thing I've noticed. US fiber providers don't fuck around with speeds.

Verizon actually provisions 1024/1024mbps at the OLT. Comcast provisions ~2256mbps for their 2gbps service.

>>
>>61605557
The reason the northern states have faster internet speeds is because like in many European countries, these states have higher population densities and a higher percentage of the population live in the cities. But because the US is huge, the fly over states with lower population densities spread out over a huge area of land lowers the average internet speed.

I bet in the rural areas of many European countries their speeds aren't that great.

>>61605586
Actually Comcast in the northeastern states like NJ doesn't have data caps. I don't think Charter and spectrum have data caps either. My ISP optimum doesn't have data caps.

plenty pretend as if gigabit is widely available. Sure it's more widespread than the US, but the majority still don't have gigabit access, and those who do generally don't see full gigabit speeds like we do in the US (for those of us with gigabit anyway).

I honestly think most (average) people would be satisfied with just 100mbps. Even with a 4-5 person family 100mbps would be enough even with everyone streaming shit at the same time. It's the data caps that really suck.

I have 200mbps down/35 Mbps up and It was more than fast enough to download/upload a few TBs of data in one month. I don't feel like I will ever really need 1gbps unless I just wanted to dick measure speedtest rankings.
>>
>>61608483
I upgraded from 150/150mbps to 1/1gbps and honestly the difference is noticeable and much nicer. With 4 heavy internet users on 150/150mbps it was painfully obvious when someone was downloading a torrent or steam game, or similar. With 1gbps the source server is usually going to be saturated before your 1gbps is. Meaning pretty much no download will use up 100% of available bandwidth leaving plenty of room for other downloads, or simultaneous HD/UHD streaming without buffering.

A single heavy user is probably fine with 100-200mbps, but get multiple heavy users going and even those speeds can feel limiting.
