Hopefully in the near future, we'll have fiber running through each and every home. It's space efficient, less noise, and tremendous bandwith amount.
I'm sure they have way better than 2.5 gigabit. Each Verizon central office probably runs something more like 100 gigabit to the rest of the network. Remember, those lines don't just serve their DSL/Fios customers -- they use them for voice service as well.

Antarius - yeah, $44/mo is dirt cheap for the speed. I'm thrilled with it.
