You better check becasue there is no package at $60 offered by Quantum fiber unless you added something.

500 MBs and 1GBs speeds are now very common and will be common for years to come. Sure there may be faster speeds offered some time in the future but here in the Villages unless you have some special case, 500 MBs is plenty fast. That said, I don't expect any rate increases from Quantum since they don't provide TV content with the every increasing franchise fees that get passed on to their customers like the cable companies.

Quantum and some of the cable companies were in a pricing war last year and offered 200-300 Mbs service for $30 but that's gone now and the standard is 500 Mbs for $50 and 1GBs for $75 (Centric fiber offers 1GBs for $65/month).

If you look at pricing for internet across the country, these are very good prices. No Tax, No Contract, No fooling around trying to get a better rate when you "special deal" expires. Just get it and forget it and enjoy.
