Anyone gone with Quantum Fiber? They came by our place offering pretty sweet price for life, but not sure if it’s actually faster than Xfinity, or if it really truly is fiber to the home.

If you are in a new development it will be completely fiber.

I switched from Xfinity to Centurylink (now Quantum) fiber during the pandemic. This was when they added it to my older, mid-century neighborhood. Best decision I've made. It is way faster and more consistent, and I think I've had one minor outage in the 4 years since I signed up. Xfinity had outages multiple times per year, plus constant price markups.

Not a new development. Just residential neighborhood. The lady said they installed fiber on the telephone poles 🤷🏻‍♂️ and that’s how it gets to the house.

The speeds they are advertising seem high. Is it truly that good? Because it’s cable into my house. So will they run a new fiber line or something ?

I haven't. I was looking into it, but I've been put off by a lot of what I've read on reddit. They rolled out some new tech recently, and it seems like it's been causing a ton of headaches. If/when that stabilizes, I'd be interested because fiber does sound great if it lives up to the billing.

I’ve had quantum fiber in my house (new build) for two years and it’s outstanding. I’m paying $50/month for 300Mbps and getting 600+Mbps down and 400+ up. Never had a single outage.

I have quantum fiber, and the only outages I have had have been because the city mowed over my line (twice!) because it took so long for their contractors to come bury it.

It is a new fiber line run directly to my house from their junction a few houses down. It easily supported work from home for me with the whole family home over the summer. And, $50/month was cheaper than the dsl I had before.

This is the speed test I just ran on my phone.

I have a townhome I want to rent out and wanted to see if there would be any interest here for a furnished townhouse (just main things like bedframes, sofa, dining table, bar stools etc). Most property managers are saying people wouldn't go for furnished, but I think it might be helpful for someone who doesn't want to move stuff or buy stuff. Wanted to get opinions from this bowl as the property is in Denver - thoughts? It's a 3 bed, 2.5 bath in a nice neighborhood.
