I’ll bet if you actually use it 24/7 they will throttle/disconnect you. “Oh I’m sorry you used up your 1TB limit. No one needs more than that per month! Are you doing something illegal???”
We have Ziply Fiber at my house (used to have Comcast) and I am kind of blown away by the service. I’ve had problems with outages twice and each time they notified us via text or email. It’s pretty awesome and we torrent all the time.
On Comcast even with the pro blast super plan we were constantly hitting the cap and getting throttled. I don’t even know what the cap is on our plan now. Never seen any evidence of throttling.
Oh, its actually “up to” 50gb/s, you may get a lower speed like 3.3mb/s.
I rarely get the top speed that I pay for. At least I’m not paying $900/month for the same speed.
You could download your entire backlog in minutes!
This is awesome!!
We’re moving to a town that has Ziply.
why? does anyone need this?

If I had this I’d probably just become the neighborhood ISP, sell 1 gig symmetrical to 49 houses for $100/mo and you’re no longer paying for that connection after 9 customers
Permits, a mini JCB, buried fiber runs and stuff would be expensive though… as well as routers for each customer… ah maybe I’d pass on that business opportunity actually 😅
Why do we need anything more than a 56k modem? It’s already way faster than my 9600 baud setup.
I hope the three customers they ever get will be enough. That’s $10,800 which is more than many even make.
