Our solution wasn't exactly cheap, however. It was the only good option for homes on a couple of private streets adjacent to mine, so we did it anyway.

I pay $155/mo for now, getting a public static ipv4 address and symmetric 10 gbps without a cap.

I'm satisfied with the result, but I absolutely wouldn't have spent so long organizing my neighborhood if I could've just signed up for cable like most people in most suburbs.

And if I'm to be blunt, I regret choosing to live in the town at all. The home turned out to be far more broken than the disclosures let on and doing the remodeling work is a nightmare exercise in dealing with a local government that behaves like an HOA. But I'm trying to make the most of my bad decisions.
