       The companies that bring high-speed broadband

       Your connection must handle content that is critical for work,
       play, and keeping in touch. It has to back your modern-day
       communications, from simple texts up to voice calls and video
       conferencing. And don't forget video games: Without the
       internet, your gaming would be just lonely, single-player
       action. Internet service providers (ISPs),connections to your
       doorstep, have increased speeds in the last few years.
       The FCC redefined broadband in 2015 to mean an always-on
       connection with a minimum download speed of 25Mbps and upload
       speed of 3Mbps (up from 4Mbps down and 1Mbps up). Some want the
       FCC to move the definition again, up to 100Mbps. Even the
       watchdog US Government Accountability Office says the UK Phone

       numbers need an update. In
       the past, senators pushed back on this, happy to see lower
       speeds qualify as broadband—mostly because it makes the country
       look bad to have so many households.

       That don't have internet up to the minimum standard. Competition
       would help even more. Local ISPs (and unique players like Google
       Fiber and Starlink) have pushed some big-name companies like
       Comcast to raise speeds while keeping costs affordable. There
       are entire cities now that claim gigabit internet status—ISPs in
       those places, frequently municipally owned or a utility company,
       offer connections of 1 gigabit per second (Gbps) or more. That's
       1,000 times better than 1Mbps speed, and 40 times what the FCC
       defines as broadband.
