What happens when I get fiber optics at home and get 500 Mbps up and down?

Cool? Well done?

What do you want to know?

First thing I will do when I get FO is build a network box and setup a LAMP server.  No more requirement for web based GUI.

Life is better with fiber. I have 100Mbit symmetric for my home office, so never any bottlenecks.

Pffft.  :D

Had 1Gbps AT&T Fiber since 2017.
Even had a micro mirror running on it, until AT&T wouldn't help blocking DDoS attacks.

I don't think I ever could go back to anything slower now.
Working on servers is instantaneous.

Questions is, whether to goto 2Gbps or 5Gbps. :P
But that means upgrading switches, already running CAT6E when I replaced cables.
