Thanks for the correction. I updated my post.

Best i know for 1GB bi-directional internet Quantum Fiber is probably the cheapest right now and no taxes or fees. Just $65/month Fiber to your home. The router they provide is a very good one with the latest wifi, good range and should cover the whole house. I had Spectrum and was paying $110/month for the same download speed.

Also just for completeness, you can get a Netgear router and configure it to work with Quantum Fiber without their router and install it in the white low voltage cabinet in the garage, connect your blue Cat5E cables from your rooms to the router then in one of the connected rooms install and connect a wifi access point.

But again, i agree, these days with newer wifi devices there are very few reasons to spend the time and effort for hard wired internet unless you are a hard core gamer for example in my opinion.
