I lived this example. Only broadband avail was Comcast. GloFiber installed fiber last year. One week before sign ups went live, Comcast started spamming my inbox about how they were unilaterally lowering my price. The second competition came in, prices went down.

Wow. I am an influencer!
Weeks ago I found out my ISP did not support IPV6 on their network. I asked why and when to expect it. 2 days ago I saw IPV6 addresses on my NIC. Today I confirmed IPV6 support via my ISP.
FREAKING AMAZING!
Thank You so much #GloFiber

Anyway if you're in south centeral PA, Brightspeed is offering a lot of good deals if you transition, after a hiccup getting the wifi up and running we're very happy with the switch. My brother in law says good things about Glofiber too. You don't need to give these criminals your money.

The #Internet & Cable in my neck of the woods has been going off constantly again for reasons unknown since this evening.
I wish Shentel would fully wire all of #FrederickCountyMD for their #GloFiber internet & TV service.

Imagine if you will an ISP in 2026 that does not support IPV6. Impossible you say?
Let me introduce you to GloFiber.
I am very happy with my 2GB speeds. But FFS! This is a huge networking issue for certain applications and service I am working with.

Man I wish GloFiber would get out into my part of Frederick County (MD). It's only in a limited part of the city right now.

I'm stuck until GloFiber decides to make their way out here, so who knows.
Been charting my uploads since the original post. Oof. I'd take even a consistent 10+ even though I'm supposed to get 35, but it's not even close.

I've heard of Frontier Communications, but they don't serve my neck of the woods, Kirk. We're still waiting for the new Shentel to expand their GloFiber internet/cable service in our home area- and hopefully say adios to Comcast/Xfinity. Fingers crossed for you & Frontier's new fiber service.

This is why we’re switching from Cox (which has an unenforced cap right now) to GloFiber (which has no cap, ever). Can’t trust Cox to do the right thing so I’d rather use a more local, fiber-based provider who actually gives a crap.
this FCC inquiry into broadband caps is 100% dead under Trump (as is pretty much all broadband consumer protection), but the cable lobby is still out here lying about them using lazy food metaphors
Cable ISPs compare data caps to food menus: Don’t make us offer unlimited soup
Data plans compared to a “tasting menu, a buffet, or unlimited soup and salad.”…

Sending thoughts & prayers. We switched over to fiber (Glofiber, in our case) a year or so ago and it has not gone out a single time. It's also much cheaper than Xfinity/Comcast/Spectrum or whatever they call themselves nowadays, and bonkers fast, servers notwithstanding. Very good decision.

Lanc City has partnered with Shentel/GloFiber as its fiber network.
I was looking at upgrading hardware & had some questions about compatibility, so I emailed them at 10pm. Got a response in 20 min.
Customer service like that makes me VERY excited to kick Comcast to the curb as soon as I can!

So the GloFiber guys came and literally walked the cable all the way to the front door at 535pm . I haven’t seen whether they trenched it or not. But the dude who was here to do the router part left at 11 - he and I both knew that the installation wasn’t going to happen today. But it’s like 99.9995%

Hey, if you cut cable but still use Comcast/Xfinity internet service, check out glofiber if it's available in your area. It's been great. And as far as I know, they don't pay MSNBC daytime personalities to gaslight and both-sides us.

Shoutout to #GloFiber (Shentel Communications) for outstanding customer service today! Yard contractor accidentally severed our cable. GloFiber tech was out here within two hours and we're back online already. Love GloFiber's commitment to their customers. Absolutely stellar.

Man if this leftover snow bullshit interferes with the installation of our GloFiber, I’m going to be distressed to say the least

Was on a Verizon WiFi node for years. Now on satellite internet. Years of limited bandwidth and data caps.The lag on conversations online has been 5-10 seconds sometimes. So I can’t do therapy work online at home. And gaming online is pretty irritating - but I got a GloFiber install date just now
