Real world speed, hard wired.

Living in SLC, this is super exciting. I cannot wait to ditch Comcast (who has raised my rates for the same service every 6 months over the past 2 years) as soon as conceivably possible.
Right now I am living in third world country, So believe it or not , Imagining internet speed more than 2 mbps is kinda hard for me , So I have question from those have Google fiber or any internet connection with speed more than 100 mbps , Can you download file from torrent ? how much your speed is ? How about ordinary web server's,Do they support download speed more than 30,40 mbps ?
I know that Google bought a fiber build in Provo. Did they also/just now buy an existing one for SLC? When I was at Neumont, I was sad that the fiber in Sandy didn't come across I-15 to South Jordan.
I wonder what this means for the metro Provo/Salt Lake Area. I live in between the two cities and would love to have access. Has Google expanded to the metro areas of other Google Fiber cities?
Does this have anything to do with the existing Utopia network or will it be a completely separate build-out?<p>I was in college when iProvo was building out, but it didn't live up to the hype. Over 10 years later and the dream of fiber in the front range is finally coming to fruition.
Looking to the future, what is being done about in-home distribution? Ten years from now, are we going to find ourselves with 1Gb/s fiber lines to our houses, and still dependent on oversaturated 54Mbps WiFi to get to it?<p>What I'm getting at is, have we had any related push to wire up more homes with cat6a (or something of that nature)? It isn't quite as future proof as fiber, but it's cheap and 10Gb/s should keep up for a long time.
I wonder what are the considerations when Google decides the next city for Google Fiber? Some people mentioned NYC's bureaucracy, I guess the existing infrastructure is also another factor, Google would of course want to make larger impact. Now it seems that they are targeting middle-level cities (especially southern ones).
Google announced this back in 2013.[1] And in 2014. We went through this with Verizon FIOS, which got a lot further than Google has before Verizon gave up expanding it. Google has only a few little projects. Verizon FIOS covers 12% of the US population.<p>Sonic.net is bringing gigabit fiber to San Francisco.[2] Construction is underway in the Sunset District. Next, Bernal Heights and the Castro. Also, Berkeley. Already operational in Sebastopol, Brentwood, and Santa Rosa. Sonic may have more actual users than Google does.<p>[1] <a href="http://anewdomain.net/2013/04/07/how-does-google-fiber-work-optical-fiber-infographic/" rel="nofollow">http://anewdomain.net/2013/04/07/how-does-google-fiber-work-...</a><p>[2] <a href="https://www.sonic.com/gigabit-fiber-internet" rel="nofollow">https://www.sonic.com/gigabit-fiber-internet</a>
