The 5Gbps and 8Gbps tiers will be offered by the internet service provider in early 2023. The company is pitching these new offerings for people like creative professionals, those that work in the cloud or with large data, and households with many people sharing the internet.
It will be easier to download and uploads with 5 Gig. 8 Gig will ensure that everything you are doing online is happening in real time. If you want, you can use your own routers if you want. The 8Gbps tier will cost $150 a month. Symmetrical uploading and download speeds will be available.
The new tiers will be available to test early on. You can try out the new products as early as next month if you are a current customer. To be considered for the program, you must fill out this form. My measly-by-comparison 100Mbps download speeds will make you jealous.
After layoffs in 2016 and the decision to leave Louisville, Kentucky, it seemed like the company was in trouble. The company wants to bring Fiber to states like Nebraska, Nevada, and Idaho. The new speed tiers were announced on Thursday.
