No, it's not as fast as cable. It's not possible, no matter what they claim.

They didn't claim. When I say "as fast as cable", all I mean is that I have yet to tell a difference in speeds when browsing or streaming. We did a speed test and the number was lower than when we had TWC, but as I said, I can't tell the difference when I'm using the Internet.

Re: My Internet Speeds Are Blazing Fast!!!
I just got a notice from Metronet my speed will be boosted to 200mbps and if I want i can purchase 1gbps for a addl. $30.I will probably pass on the gbps as I don't download music or songs.
Would gbps help the lagging of YouTube and videos online if I went to the faster speed or is that problem on the website end?
