GFiber announces automatic speed increases while maintaining prices
"The upgraded speeds for GFiber include: The previous Core 1 Gig is now Core 3 Gig, priced at $70 per month. Core 3 is 3x the symmetrical speed of GFiber's initial internet offering and is still the same price it was in 2012. Home 3 Gig is now Home 5 Gig, for $100/month. Customers at this tier are seeing about a 67% increase in speeds and will receive the GFiber Multi-Gig Wi-Fi 7 router."
"GFiber is rolling out the new, higher speeds in Des Moines, Iowa first, but the company's announcement suggested they were planning to roll out the speeds to all markets. The company's two highest-speed plans will also feature Wi-Fi 7 routers. "This isn't just about more speed," GFiber Chief Growth Officer Melani Griffith wrote on the company's blog, "it's about continuing to create and add value, not just for the newest customers, but those that have always had GFiber.""
GFiber is upgrading customer connections to multi-gig speeds at the same monthly prices previously charged for lower tiers. The rollout begins in Des Moines, Iowa, with plans to expand to other markets. The previous Core 1 Gig plan becomes Core 3 Gig at $70/month. Home 3 Gig is now Home 5 Gig at $100/month and includes a GFiber Multi-Gig Wi-Fi 7 router. Edge 8 Gig at $150/month also includes the Wi-Fi 7 router. GFiber attributes the upgrades to deployment of 25G PON technology and positions the investment as future-proofing for residential and commercial use.
