I am new to the villages and have centric fiber here is shady brook. It is 1gb service. I am thrilled that I am actually measuring 600 mb/s down load speed and 400 mb/s upload speed.

I’ve always imagined the advertised speed is the maximum if nobody else in the neighborhood is on.

The incredible thing about the villages internet is how cheap it is. $65/mo…. I mean really. Almost Everywhere else in the universe high speed internet is $150 to $200/month….or more.

I’m sure like everyone here I’ve had many different high speed internet services in the past. I’ve always found cable based internet has much lower upload speed than download speed. But it is surprising to hear about a fiber based system with such a big ratio. They have so much more bandwidth.
