I'm in a relatively new development with VDSL2 service, a DSLAM fed by 10G fiber, and a relatively short loop length, so speed tests have been pretty consistent. Average 75-80 Mbps (paying for 80) down, upload is almost always 38-40 Mbps.

I will say you're right about Sparklight - they definitely "over provisioned" my line, and speed tests were always 110 down, 10 up - very consistently. However, I'm not sure if its my local area or what, but latency was terrible with them, 30-60ms just to servers in my immediate area, whereas with CenturyLink I'm getting 10-30ms to the same servers.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-See-ya-Sparklight-Call-me-when-you-ditch-the-data-caps-32453859 Sat, 20 Jul 2019 10:37:46 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-See-ya-Sparklight-Call-me-when-you-ditch-the-data-caps-32453792 www.centurylink.com/abou ··· ion.html

That being said if you actually get those speeds from CenturyLink you have an awesome location as those "up to" numbers with non fiber to the house tend to be all over the map when the speed testing comes out. The one good thing I'll say about spark light is as long as you have less than a gig plan you tend to beat the advertised speed. (Or perhaps that's only Idaho.) Either way, congrats on the cheaper option (here it's a Max of 60 and I've not used less than a TB in a long time :(]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-See-ya-Sparklight-Call-me-when-you-ditch-the-data-caps-32453792 Sat, 20 Jul 2019 07:24:10 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-See-ya-Sparklight-Call-me-when-you-ditch-the-data-caps-32453339 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-See-ya-Sparklight-Call-me-when-you-ditch-the-data-caps-32453339 Fri, 19 Jul 2019 16:04:24 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-See-ya-Sparklight-Call-me-when-you-ditch-the-data-caps-32453336 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-See-ya-Sparklight-Call-me-when-you-ditch-the-data-caps-32453336 Fri, 19 Jul 2019 16:02:59 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-See-ya-Sparklight-Call-me-when-you-ditch-the-data-caps-32453328

I just switched to CenturyLink, no data caps, 4x the upload speed (80 down/40 up), and much better latency. $10 cheaper than Sparklight's 100/10 plan with a 300 gig cap.
