Fiber vs Cable Internet: Which Is Better?
Fiber and cable are the two most common wired connections. Both are fast, but they behave differently in ways that matter for how you use the internet.
Speed and symmetry
Fiber offers symmetrical speeds and typically lower latency. Cable delivers strong download speeds but much slower uploads.
Reliability
Fiber is less affected by peak-time congestion and weather. Cable can slow during neighborhood rush hours.
Availability and price
Cable reaches more homes nationally, but fiber providers like Kinetic are expanding fast and often cost less per Gig.
