First, I live in rural Okayama. I've been paying 7200 yen a month for Sakura, and NTT installed a fiber line into my house. I get about 300 mb/s up and down despite being labeled as gigabit. I know speeds vary and aren't guaranteed, but I want to get the fastest connection I can. I've seen stuff like so net, or biglobe according to kakaku, but they all just say "up to a gigabit". If the line is the same, will I ever get any faster speeds in my home? Or will the ISP only change congestion amount?
Where I lived back home, which was a smaller town (18,000 pop vs 32,000 here), I had gigabit and I would never drop below. At least not during the thousands of times I ran speed tests (including during after work peak hour). The one time I did, they refunded me the entire month. But this is Japan. Not rural Canada. There's GOTTA be a way to get faster internet into my house. What do you guys think?
