What is Fiber Internet?
Fiber Internet is built on a new fiber-optic network that uses light pulsing through special glass filaments to zap information back and forth at unimaginable speeds.
Fiber is a very strong choice for internet service due to reliability, faster upload speeds, no data caps and lower Internet rates that are priced for life.

Compare Google Fiber vs Comcast Xfinity
Fiber is a great new Internet product. Comcast Xfinity has old coax cable lines for Internet, higher prices (that keep going up), modem rental fees, sneaky data caps, and way slower Upload speeds. Personally I dont know why you would want to pay more to Comcast Xfinity to get an inferior Internet Service. Google Fiber wins on speed and customer service!

Recommended Google Fiber Installation Tips
From 27 years of experience here are our recommendations to make your Fiber install go smoothly and not be without Internet service.
- Overlap Internet service. Do not disconnect your old ISP (Xfinity) until after you are 100% sure the new Fiber is working well.
- Do not let the Fiber tech leave your home until after you have tested that all your Internet connected devices are working on the new Fiber Internet (PCs, printers, streaming devices, smart home devices, etc.)
- We always recommend using a neutral email like Gmail, MSN, Yahoo, etc. However you can use your current Comcast email address and keep it, even if you have no TV or Internet service with Comcast Xfinity!
- Don’t waste money bundling TV and Home Phone, there are way less expensive options.
- If needed install WiFi 6 Mesh to improve your home’s internal WiFi network.
