Kind of hard to argue with that. However I tend to think dslreports
and browsers start to give inaccurate tests at these speeds. Got rrul
available? The closest flent server I have to you is in germany.

I also agree that, man, the base difference in "getting on" a fiber
network is really something you can feel. - 2ms vs 10+... you can
complete a short transaction before one can even start, on cable. To
me, this is probably the biggest perceptual difference between cable
and fiber behavior (more important than fixing bloat)

I miss being on sonic. And I didn't know, until recently, that my
modem was on badmodems.com's list.

I don't "get" the knee in the download curve here and the prior test.
