I have the option for 2 gbps but it costs more than the 1gbps connection I have at the moment. Do you get any use out of the higher speeds? Did you have to upgrade your local network gear to take advantage?

sfp+ modules are pretry cheap, just running om3 patch cords everywhere.

Things download faster, so steam games, off-site backups go faster.

What do I need to do to make this happen in my neighborhood? I want to push municipal optical internet at the city level so bad.

I have cable internet and it’s actually fantastic for typical consumer-based ISPs but I’m tired of the horrible upload speeds.

Millions of dollars. Sadly that is what you need.
