    Yeah, it was such a blatant attempt to confuse customers that I’m surprised it took this long to make them stop. I wish their competitors had the balls to get aggressive with it and run commercials that said (all factual by the way) “Xfinity 10G has a $1,000 installation and activation fee, costs $300 a month, and requires you leasing a special modem from them for $20 a month that you can only use at home and nowhere else.”

      Also, AFAIK it’s wireless, using their shitty cell network. It’s to compete with Verizon’s wireless FiOS which can actually do like 1.5 Gbps (if you’re close to the tower/receiver).
