China Telecom is driving 50G-PON and FTTR deployments

Living in a house with 40 parties, city is subsidizing optical fiber, only 5000€ for the whole building to be connected. Majority said no. So 50MBit/s is here to stay.

125 Euro per apartment and they said no… Wtf…

Per month? That is high.

I got a 25€/month from Vodafone @ 60MB/s, which really is enough for a small family

Not per month, it was a one time fee to lay FTTB (optical fiber to the building) which would have allowed individual apartment owners to choose higher internet speeds if they need.

My city could have added municipal ftth using a municipal bond that would have raised each homes taxes by about 8 bucks a year for 5 years. Instead they voted it down and Comcast jacked the prices up the next month.
