When you stop and think about it, we use the internet A LOT throughout the day. In fact, the average American spends about seven hours a day online, according to Forbes. In homes where internet is needed for various tasks simultaneously, or where multiple users are tapping the internet at the same time on multiple devices, a high-speed fiber-optic connection can keep the fun going at all hours of the day.

The benefits of fiber internet are many. Where available, it provides a fast and steady connection for everyone in your household to enjoy any of the following—and more—all at once without skipping a beat. 

Fiber internet is a type of connection that uses fiber-optic cables to connect homes and offices to the internet, whereas cable internet travels over copper (coaxial) lines. Fiber-optic cables consist of thin strands of glass or plastic called optical fibers. Data is transferred through the fibers within the cable lines using light signals rather than electricity.
