Trouble is we have "Fiber" internet. But the fibers go to a box a quater of a mile away. Its copper from there.

We have "up to" 38 mb/s but in reality get half that. Seems to be fine for everything but the Grandsons X-Box. Boy do they eat some bandwidth.

Land line is for fax. We get about 20 spam faxes a month and send about 5 a year. When I upgraded to FiOS with Verizon, they just let me keep the land line as a "bonus". It used to cost $40/mo along with $65/mo for 10/6 DSL.
 
FiOS cost me $95 for 75/75. Of course NI's site is still throttled at about 3.2. Sheesh.

Hi,
 
All jacks here. We even wired the apartment so you can get cable and internet in the main bedroom and small bedroom.




I can't believe it's been 9 years already, but when we were building this house I wired Cat5e and 3G coax throughout the house.  At the point of presence from the telco, the DSL goes into the modem, then to a gigabit switch.  Everything inside goes to the switch to keep intranet traffic for NAS & peer-to-peer off of the modem.  The only exception is SWMBO's work machine that goes straight to the modem for it's VPN.
 
It's worked very well for almost a decade now ...

Hi,
 
Comcast here in Vancouver, WA is almost $80 bux ... and there is no competition here, as Clear came and went, with their prairie patty kind of service.
