Yea sadly I have fiber at 100down and 10 up. And from what I can tell, I need faster upload to stream anything to anyone. And yes, this is the best option available.

That can’t be considered fibre than can it? Fibre is generally 1gup/down atleast in my city.

I saw the actual fiber spools they rolled out. It’s a fiberoptic cable. I just live out in the country and the other option is LTE4. The DSL company basically quit selling it, and it was slower than LTE4.

Fibre is just the medium of transmission, the ISPs can throttle it however they want.
