Wow how much is Google fiber?

I have Clear as well and it has dipped as low as 200Kbps. Ridiculous and a case of major false advertising consodering they guarantee between 3-6mbps. I can count on one hand the number of times my connection speed has been above 3mbps .

This is amazingly cheap in my eyes. My parents live a bit out of the way and they pay about 150$ for a 10/10 fiber line, they had to pay about 500$ for the install and the service includes nothing extra at all. In the cities, it's not much better, I paid about 100$ for a 25/5 connection in Trondheim.

Here in Sweden, though, it's really cheap. We're getting a 250/100 line and it will cost us about 100$ per month.
