"Customers shouldn't have to think about their WiFi: It should just work. By including eero devices with every new plan, we're making it easier for customers to get set up quickly and get strong, fast coverage throughout their homes."

In the fintech industry we can link latency directly to profit and money. If I have lower latency than the competition, I can get to the better deals, I can make the better deals.

Internet traffic continues to surge globally as digital services, AI-driven applications, and real-time data exchange become ever more embedded in daily life. This new traffic peak confirms AMS-IX's position as one of the world's leading Internet Exchanges, continuing to play a pivotal role in enabling resilient, high-capacity global connectivity.

The firm's study, 'North American Fiber Broadband Report: FTTH Review and Forecast 2026-2030,' indicates that nearly $200 billion will be spent on fiber over the next five years, highlighting a significant investment in fiber-to-the-home services.

Project Spark is designed to fundamentally reshape how high-capacity services in the UK are built, priced and delivered, supporting the next wave of digital infrastructure expansion.

A router is the hub that sends internet traffic from the modem to every connected device. Even with a fast plan, an outdated or weak router can throttle home internet speed, causing buffering, lag, and slow loading times. This often shows up when multiple people stream, game, or join video calls at the same time.

At that point, backpressure and load shedding are the only things that retain a system that can still operate. If you have ever been in a Starbucks overwhelmed by mobile orders, you know the feeling. The in-store experience breaks down. You no longer know how many orders are ahead of you. There is no clear line, no reliable wait estimate, and often no real cancellation path unless you escalate and make noise.

With 25 for 5, we're redefining what customers should expect from an internet provider. People want fast internet they can rely on, without surprises. This offer delivers Optimum Fiber Internet at $25 a month - no gimmicks, no short‑term promo - just reliable, high‑speed fiber internet locked in for five years.

The Osaka deployment adds 100 Gbps of edge capacity and is hosted within carrier-neutral facilities operated by Equinix. This increases regional proximity, resilience, and throughput for customers serving users in Japan and nearby markets, while maintaining consistent traffic handling and security enforcement. As organizations scale across regions, maintaining low latency, stable availability, and clear operational control has become increasingly complex.

Google Fiber, now just GFiber, will merge with Stonepeak's Astound Broadband to create a new network provider. Stonepeak will hold a majority ownership stake, while the existing GFiber executive team will run the company. According to the pair, the move gives GFiber the external capital and necessary focus to drive its next phase of expansion, allowing it to buildout its fiber footprint across the US.

Wholesale access has been inherently supported by the Broadband Forum's network architecture over the past 20 years, and this project takes the best practices from copper‑based broadband to reshape and evolve them for fiber and cloud networks.

Edge computing is a type of IT infrastructure in which data is collected, stored, and processed near the "edge" or on the device itself instead of being transmitted to a centralized processor. Edge computing systems usually involve a network of devices, sensors, or machinery capable of data processing and interconnection. A main benefit of edge computing is its low latency. Since each endpoint processes information near the source, it can be easier to process data, respond to requests, and produce detailed analytics.

Ookla said the growing use of ChatGPT and other AI tools places much more demand on mobile networks than the typical activities of browsing social media and the web, watching videos, texting, and making the occasional phone call. As a result, more speed and expanded capabilities will be necessary. The report said advanced AI capabilities like AI-enabled glasses will put a particular strain on upload connections in the future.

Though Starlink's market and capacity have grown sharply over the last year, the satellite broadband company's median speeds still fall short of the 100/20 Mbps benchmark established by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in 2024, according to a new report from Ookla. The report - "2025 Global Satellite Broadband Performance Report" - was released yesterday. The report marked improvements in Starlink's cumulative network capacity, which has nearly doubled in the past year.

Light-based internet provider Taara, which spun out of Alphabet's "moonshot" incubator last year, just launched Taara Beam to provide 25Gbps connectivity within cities over invisible beams of light - line of sight permitting. Unlike last year's Taara Lightbridge, which connects communities separated by water and mountains at distances up to 20km (over 12 miles), the shoebox-sized Beam can be mounted to street poles and roof tops for city-wide connectivity at distances up to 10km. The 8kg (less than 20 pounds) device typically consumes about 90W.

NMSurf is one of the largest fixed wireless providers in New Mexico, serving the central and northern area of the state. La Bajada was previously served by a 3-Gig microwave middle-mile connection. But, Catanach said, the bandwidth was becoming insufficient. New microwave licenses are hard to come by in New Mexico, he added, because the state itself claims many licenses for radio communications.
