Why People Love Verizon Fios: Symmetrical Upload and Download Speed
Possibly has the best Internet speed in America. The downside? Limited geographical availability.
In the year of the pandemic, with many Americans stuck at home for work and school, the importance of fast Internet is more important than ever.
One of the companies that offers that, Verizon, can boast something that many of its rivals can’t: Its speeds are reliably fast both for uploads and downloads. Most cable companies, for instance, may be able to offer fast download speeds, but can’t say the same about uploads.
“Fios has higher upload speeds than most Internet providers thanks to their fiber-optic network technology,” Broadband Now said in its most recent speed test analysis. “While cable and DSL prioritize download speeds above all else, the increased bandwidth of Fios fiber allows them to deliver upload speeds in the same range as their download speeds.”
