Gigabit Internet is the next generation of broadband service, which is typically delivered over fiber-optic lines and provides speeds of 1,000 Megabits per second (Mbps), which is also referred to as “1 Gbps” or “Gigabit” Internet. Gig Internet allows you to download 100 photos in three seconds, 100 songs in three seconds and an HD movie in seven seconds.
