   Wow, $360 per month!   $60 IS much better!  I was promised 1 gig up and down,   
   but I    
   am not getting it.  I am getting 650 Mbps  down and 40 up, but I am still very   
   happy.     
      
   I was told that the 1 gig promise is the total amount of bandwidth available,   
   and it is    
   shared amongst all of my devices.  I have about 15 devices that connected   
   immediately    
   once the router activated.
