I live in Nevada and internet providers are slim. I’ve been looking around at the handful of companies that have internet. I live with family and their bill keeps getting hiked up. I’ve found an internet company with decent reviews but I’m stumped on something. What’s better copper cabling or fiber? The company I emailed said “Fiber has a higher potential maximum speed than copper”. My cousin tells me that’s not true because it’s part of their marketing speech. Can someone give me more information? I’m not sure what to believe.

    It depends on what you buy, for internet speed both are good. Your internet will be 1,000mbit? Copper can go up to 10,000mbit so quick enough. Fiber can go up to like 400,000mbit in data centers. So yes fiber can be much quicker but both are already over kill.
