Google provided both modems and routers, which was absolutely essential. Very few people had/have the hardware to take advantage of the fiber speed.

Anyone who wants to roll out a fast service should certainly take that cue.

Anyone looking to roll out fast service should try to get Google to sell them the routers, because Google actually bothered to do the routers and modems right in ways that almost no retail modems and routers do, and few ISPs would be able to even develop detailed product requirements for.
