<div style="font-family:sans-serif"><div style="white-space:normal"><p dir="auto">One of the compensations for moving from Santa Fe, NM to here (near Durham, NC) is that gigabit internet is almost universal, at least in the newer neighborhoods. We had a choice of two fiber connections at the corner of our property.</p>
<p dir="auto">What I’ve discovered is that there are not many sites out there that will pump the bits out that fast, so a gigabit connection is only marginally better than, say, 300 megabits.</p>
<p dir="auto">Still it feels good to go to Speedtest.net and see the needle jump up to 800 megabits.</p>

on Malcolm Turnbull's NBN, and even that's a marked improvement on what we<br>
had only 2 months ago - about 3Mbps down, 300Kbps up.<br>
