I pay for 200 mbps up and down, but get like 330.
Edit: exactly $39.99 a month with autopay and owning my modem bought from Verizon.

Yeah, I vaguely remember reading that Fios tends to provision 10% higher than advertised just to be sure that they don’t get angry calls about the 1-2 mb discrepancy that happens when you run a speed test

I pay for 400/400 and reliably get 500/500 or better. Rock solid compared to the unstable shitshow that was comcast.

Fios is symmetrical, your up and down should be right with each other. I have 300/300 and it's pretty consistent to that.

I’ve got the 300 plan. That’s what I get when speed testing.

I'm on the one gig plan and can second that I get similar speeds.

Bingo! And that speed test was alongside me mindlessly streaming Twitch, so the connection's good and beefy.

It's not like schools were completely empty for months on end and could have been fixed to remove shit like this but also update the crumbling everything. That would have been smart.

I get 330/330 and I pay for 300/300. Fios is the way to go if you need any sort of upload bandwidth. 4K cameras are a huge hog fyi

Thanks - I assume you're on the 1 gig plan?

I pay for 300/300 mbps up/down on FiOS and that's almost exactly what I get running a speed test.

Getting 925 down/846 up right this second off my main node, so it's OK.

Yup. Nothing amazing, but when you’re in that nexus of hungry, have some cash onhand, and just passing by, it’s right on time.

I went here years ago as I was down the street waiting for my windshield to be replaced. Coffee and a breakfast sandwich. Typical greasy spoon.
