[deleted] Confirmed, available at my address in Kitchener as well. I would never need it.
My router only does 2.5gb and I don't even need that, but at $80 a month who cares...

Now we just need UniFi to gives us a UDM-Pro with an Apple M1 cpu in it.

Yes, I will use turn on smartqueue fq_codel even at 8Gbits/s.

The address checker may be broken. It return nothing on any plan on the Bell web page.

Anyone willing to pay for that is just for bragging rights. No home user can consume that much bandwidth unless they are doing something illicit or they don't have a life. Might be a good option for a small business with about 30 employees.

So by not having a life you are fine to have 8gbit internet? Good to know.
