Leave it to Comcast to make FTTP suck.

Wow, that's bad. I didn't know they did that.

Comcast have a legit fiber network where I live (San Francisco Bay Area). It's not even GPON or XGS-PON or anything like that where multiple houses share bandwidth; with Comcast's version you get a dedicated fiber run from your house all the way to the headend, no multiplexing.

You do pay a premium for it though. It was originally 2Gbps symmetric for $300/month, now it's 6Gbps for the same price (with 10Gbps coming soon).
