I have 8/8 gbps with no caps... quantum fiber (lumen, CenturyLink). The speed is amazing.
What's "quantum" about it?
Sometimes works, sometimes doesn't, but you only know when you check and go to use it.
Its cost
$185? It's not that expensive for 8/8 IMO... 1gig cable is like $300
Yeah, that's not bad. I pay $70 for just 1/1, so...
That's the name of the company. https://www.quantumfiber.com/ It's owned/operated by Lumen/Centurylink.
fibers carry light particles I guess
The electrons.
