Description
Have you ever wondered why your fiber internet speed tiers look identical to cable or DSL, despite completely different technology? This episode pulls back the curtain on how consumer internet is actually provisioned. We explain the difference between speed and bandwidth, how GPON fiber is shared with up to 64 neighbors, why enterprise Dedicated Internet Access costs 10x more for the same number on paper, and whether the speed tiers on your bill are technical necessity or pure marketing. If you've ever felt like your internet plan is a black box, this one's for you. Episode #326213 — open it directly at myweirdprompts.com/326213
