How much that cost and what type of connection is that?
fiber optics connection?

Runs about $120 a month with phone/tv/internet.  It's a Verizon connection that they advertise as fiber optics (Verizon Fios), so I'd assume it to be.

Speedtest.net is a natural hater.  How are they going to give this a rating of 2.8 when it is double that of the Fios speeds which ranked 3.2

^They didn't rank the speed. The rating is for your ISP (comcast, time warner, verizon, etc.)

I want Fios.
