Not true. QuantumFiber (aka CenturyLink) gives you an RJ-45 jack in the wall with a dynamic IP address somewhere in your home that you specify (typically where you want your router). In my case, the connection to the wall jack is via cat5e cable (in the walls during construction) from the RJ-45 jack in the QuantumFiber box in the low-voltage panel in the garage. Most people will plug in a Wi-Fi router but you could plug in a computer or a VoIP phone.

Copper networks might have decent download speeds but that all have higher latencies and very slow upload speeds. Also, it doesn’t matter which network provider you use, you will not get a rj-45 connection, fiber or no fiber. Most people will just use wifi which is slow.
If you can get fiber to your house, this will be the best network you can get and probably at the cheapest cost.
Also there is at least 2 fiber companies that offer internet, the newest company is for the newer areas south of 44.
