What’s a gigabit?
What’s a gigabit?
One gigabit per second (Gbps) is 1000 megabits (Mbps), a way to measure both speed and capacity for an internet connection. Google Fiber 1 Gig gives you internet that can get or send information up to one gigabit per second without data caps. That means enough internet for everyone in your home and all their devices. Google Fiber 2 Gig offers downloads of up to 2 gigabits per second (2000 Mbps) and uploads of up to 1 gigabit per second.
What’s a megabit?
What’s a megabit?
One megabit per second (Mbps) is 1000 kilobits, the standard speed of the average cable internet connection download speed. Some Google Fiber customers may have plans measured in megabits, offering slower connections that 1 Gig that still provide reliable internet access without data caps.
Why do faster speeds matter?
Why do faster speeds matter?
Whether it’s streaming TV, working from home, video calling, gaming, or something else, many things we do today require fast, reliable internet for both uploads and downloads. Powerful Wi-Fi across your whole home means you’re not restricted to that one spot if you want a fast, reliable wireless connection. Whether wired or over Wi-Fi, the more people use an internet connection, the slower it may go. That’s why speeds faster than a single internet-connected device typically goes (such as 1 Gig) can make sure that everyone can use the internet at once without slowdowns.
