![]() My previous internet service provider was giving me 85 Mbps download and 6 Mbps upload for $140/month. That and HD programming on 3 TVs for $130/month. My download speed was 921 Mbps and my upload speed was 942 Mbps. When I was up and running, I ran a speed test on my internet connection. Google Fiber is basically ten times faster than most internet connections in people’s homes around Kansas City. ![]() But those are minor things considering everything else went so well. The only thing I could complain about during installation is that John’s backup technician forgot to close the access to the attic and cleaned mud off his shoes on my front concrete step. I loved that they caught that and took care of it for me with a smile. (Things like wireless lighting, SONOS speakers, etc.) Also, one of the TV tuner boxes wasn’t working well out of the box and had to be replaced and the new one configured. My install was a bit more technical than most because I have a TV on every floor and a somewhat complicated network with lots of connected devices. The installation took about 3 hours which is the expectation that Google set with me before the appointment. He put on protective shoe covers to make sure he wasn’t tracking anything into the house. He had me walk him through the house to understand where I needed the Google TV tuner boxes to be and where I wanted the main Google network box to be installed. Two Google Fiber vans showed up a couple of minutes before our scheduled install time of 8am. I had Google Fiber installed on Monday, May 10th. Some of this is going to be technical… I will try to put that in little sections that you can skip if you don’t care about the technical stuff. ![]() Hi there! It’s Jason with this week’s blog post and I decided to write about my recent experience getting Google Fiber installed at my home.
