Google Fiber is Alphabet Inc.'s fiber-to-the-premises service in the United state, providing broadband interest and cable television to a small and slowly increasing number of location. Its goal is to reduce the cost and increase the availability of high-speed internet.
Here are things you should know that will help you understand Google Fiber:
- Slow development up till now
Many people assumed Google Fiber would be available in all major cities almost instantly. After all, it was a Google product -- and that mega-company essentially has unlimited funds, so everyone expected a fast launch. It’s been the complete opposite, but there is now light at the end of the tunnel.

- What speed to expect from Google Fiber
Google Fiber speeds are fast -- very fast.
A gigabit per second, or 1000 Mbps, is attractive, especially for households that have multiple internet users and devices. Multiple computers, laptops, mobile devices and tablets can really bog down a traditional internet connection.
- How much Google Fiber will cost
While the monthly cost of Google Fiber varies depending on what location you are in, each city’s cost is in relatively the same ballpark. For example, if you live in Charlotte, you can get internet plus TV for $130 a month, plus an additional $10 if you want to add Fiber Phone.
