I'd be okay with 200mbps symmetric, with a future goal of 1gbps symmetric. More than ANYTHING, I'm tired of providers providing things like 1gbps down, 10mbps up. And then doing shit like "Here's you're 1gbps plan with a 1tb data cap!"
You get a terabyte cap? Jfc, where I live it’s like a few gigs, and that can cost into the hundreds for maybe 25.
Yeah states with Comcast caps you at 1.2TB unless you pay $50 for the unlimited plan, which I don't think is even offered everywhere. They discount it to $30 if you use their modem.
I had to get a fucking business plan to not deal with this BS. Still never got half the speed I'm paying for. The only other option is $100 for DSL.
