Comcast advertising “10G” in hopes to confuse consumers to accept slower speeds::Comcast says Xfinity offers 10G home internet, but the term “10G” is hazy and potentially misleading—especially because it has no relation to 5G for cell phones.
I honestly think it was in response to EPB. I noticed EPB advertising 10 Gig and then weeks later noticed Comcast advertising 10G.
Checking EPB’s site they claim to be the first 10 Gig residential provider in the U.S. and I don’t doubt it. It’s on their back alone Chattanooga got deemed Gig city. Which I might add suddenly meant that Comcast began offering near (and later actual and higher) 1 Gbps speeds not on business accounts.
Sonic on the West Coast probably has that distinction when it comes to 10Gb. But yeah, I think city run ISPs have also caught Comcast’s attention. Which is why there is so much legislative pressure against municipal ISPs.
