"My cable modem is SLOW. My DSL line is SLOW" -- Part 2: And the
winner for the fastest Internet broadband connection is the lucky
fellow who's got Verizon's fiber optic FIOS service, only $99.95 a
month. For more on FIOS,

See source article for national service comparison by User Self Report
and Time Warner's claims to improving service.

IMHO, from looking at the chart it appears that the Broadband service

for the government and business.
A "slowly" wired nation seems to be their goal.
Are they crying all the way to the bank?
