As I’m writing this, I’m sitting in a house that already has 1 Gig fiber internet access through AT&T. At this same location, there is also a Google Fiber line sitting there, but I don’t have access to it because Google has yet to offer the service to our neighborhood.
Needless to say, I’m a bit upset because while I can’t even get access to their gigabit offerings after they dug up my yard to install it, Google has decided they want to test the limits of the internet by providing residents with up to 20 Gig connections by the end of 2023.
Now, they already offer:
- 1 Gig – $70
- 2 Gig – $100
- 5 Gig – $125
- 8 Gig – $150
They also already offer 20 Gig connections at University Missouri – Kansas City and the United Way of Utah County, but now they want to make sure residents are able to join in on the fun. On top of that, if you get the 20 Gig connection, they’ll provide you with a Wi-Fi 7 router to go with it.
This is all part of their plan to try and reach speeds up to 100 Gigabit per second, so it seems they are well on their way.
