<div dir="auto">It would meet some customers’ needs because
multiple people could use 1G of service at a time. I think
it is interesting to distinguish “>1G CPE” from “true

<p>Can I ask a really dumb question? Consider it an xmas present. I
know this sounds like "nobody needs more than 640k", but how can
household possibly need a gig let alone 10g? I'm still on 25mbs
DSL, have cut the cord so all tv, etc is over the net. If I really
cared and wanted 4k I could probably upgrade to a 50mbs service
and be fine. Admittedly it's just the two of us here, but throw in
a couple of kids and I still don't see how ~100mbs isn't
sufficient let alone 1 or 10G. Am I missing something really
stupid?<br>
