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.

    As an end customer you don’t care whether it’s fiber or copper. There are physical differences but they don’t matter at consumer level. You care about the advertised speeds.
