    Through my cable internet and TV service provider using a hybrid coaxil/fiber optic network with a Docsis 3.0 modem ( http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/DOCSIS ). It was the highest teir and when combined with my TV service (with no movie channels) the price was $300/month. So we lowered the teir to only 25 Mbs, which lowered the price by about $90. The teir is advertised as 50Mbs, but the modem doesnt really have a max badwith capacity and the speed was relative to how much fiber optic wiring was near your home. I was lucky in this case that where i lived had a good amout of fiber optic underground.

    Just for those that are curious though... once you go past about 20Mbs, you wont see much difference because 90% of the servers you will connect to wont be able to accommodate your speed. I had to try about 8 different servers on speedtest.net till i was able to find that one that didnt cap out for me. Some of them were surprisingly slow capping out under 20Mbs. That kind of bandwith is only useful if you have multiple machines using the internet simultaniously. Good for torrent downloads though, but not worth the $$$.

    Just got Verizon FiOS Quantum installed at the new house and had to check the speed. Paying for 50/25 so I guess I'm doing pretty good there.
    The packages they have listed for my area are insane. I believe the lowest option was 15/5, then 50/25, then 75/35, there were even options for 150Mb and 300Mb download speeds. I can't remember the upload speeds off the top of my head though.
    The speedtest below is through wifi with the router in the same room as the laptop.

    Old thread. Nothing wrong with reviving it. Of course, I'm getting roughly half the speed promised by my ISP Knology.
