What is the source of your internet connection? What speed? Cost?

Im honestly not sure outside it being fiber optic and much faster more reliable than the awful long range wifi that was the only thing available in my area 6 months ago. I seem to recall 55$/Month but internet, electricity and rental space are included in the perks of my job so I've never had reason to ask.
We just got lucky as they ran the line right across the edge of the property on the way into town.

I know people who live in rural areas here and are connected to an internet satellite, but their connection is extremely slow for 2021 standards (something like 20 MB/s). I think nothing compares to a cable connection of 600 MB/s or 1 GB/s.

I've had satellite and Long range wifi both in the last 4 years and they were just awful. It's 99% of the reason I ditched my computer as I could load pages over cellphone towers faster with more reliability.
