I think Fiber speed drops by the number of clients being added, so if they are still adding customers in your neighborhood Terry, then the speed you likely can rely on is the one when all the build out activity has ceased. I wonder, with the advent of AI, if the speeds Steve is getting could lead to a housing boom in his neighborhood. The new satellite systems are promising future speeds (and mobile) that are comparable to fiber but nothing like what Steve is getting. I thought I read somewhere that 5g cellular was expected to obsolete fiber and satellites. Maybe that's the next generation of cellular 6g. At this moment in time, fiber, being least affected by weather, is the way to go. Who knows how far away all those other promising systems will take to get to us.
