Exactly, and if you need 2GB speeds in your household, then $150 a month or an Apple TV is not going to break the bank.$150? ouch! do yourself a favor and get the 1GB plan and buy your own Apple TV.

Something doesn't compute here. This statement would imply that getting an Apple TV is the primary reason to get the 2Gig service. What if the real reason for getting the 2Gig service is because it's needed/wanted regardless of an Apple TV? I guess there may be some people who buy a service for the perks instead of the service.$150? ouch! do yourself a favor and get the 1GB plan and buy your own Apple TV.
Good. Excellent devices the appleTV is.
Internet provider Frontier today announced the launch of a new promotion that will see the company providing a free Apple TV 4K to new customers who sign up for a new 2 Gigabit Fiber plan.

According to Frontier, customers who opt for the 2 Gig plan will be provided with an Apple TV 4K to enjoy 4K television content. Priced at $150 per month, this is Frontier's highest-priced internet tier, but it also comes with a WiFi 6E-compatible router and extender.
Along with offering customers who sign up for the 2 Gig plan a free Apple TV+, Frontier is also providing three months of Apple TV+, a promotion that is available to all new and existing Frontier customers regardless of their internet plan.
Frontier's website says that the promotion is available for both new and returning Apple TV+ subscribers, so even those who have already tried the service should be able to get three additional months of Apple TV+ access.

Holy hell, you are literally doing EVERYTHING wrong.I’m paying comcast close to $300 a month for cable, internet, and VOIP. America!
As someone who also started out with a 300 baud modem (IIRC correctly, the original Mac model was 1,200 baud - a revolution) I would absolutely love something faster than the top speed Spectrum offers NYC -- especially for UP -- it is embarrassingly slow, but definitely for down as well, not to mention RELIABILITY.I would love to hear anyone's use case for needing 2GB speeds.
Dont get me wrong.. speed is nice. I'm on a 500MB plan from a nice local fiber ISP, and its awesome. I can't even imagine what I'd need even more speed for though.
Of course, I also remember 300 baud modems, so there's that.
I suppose all huge ISPs are pretty bad when it comes to customer service,

My in-laws pay almost that (it’s like $280/month) for the same service with Comcast. It’s robbery.Holy hell, you are literally doing EVERYTHING wrong.
Except for collecting a helluva paycheck apparently.
It actually comes with 2 eero pro 6e units free of charge."this is Frontier's highest-priced internet tier, but it also comes with a WiFi 6E-compatible router and extender."
Translation: It comes with substandard network equipment that we can manage and control, charge you excessive rental fees for that become pure profit within a year, allow our employees to monitor your internal network, ensure that you have to use our DNS so we can monetize your internet activity, inject content as we see fit, and even create (especially for ones like Xfinitiy) free hotspots using your equipment and bandwidth.
No thanks. I'll buy my equipment.
Apple AirPort Extreme works in bridge mode but not much more.For people complaining about Frontier have yet to taste the bitterness that is ATT Fiber.
I love my new house, but I really miss Frontier now that I'm shackled with ATT with their horrible wireless routers that crash with more than 40 devices (which is easy to exceed with a large smarthome) that they force onto you with a broken DMZ function so you can't use a 3rd party router to avoid double NAT.
I was able to bypass temporarily with MAC spoofing and hot swapping, but that trick no longer works as they reauthenticate every several days in my area now.
Fios offers 2gb in NYCNot available in NYC, of course... the Spectrum monopoly continues on our block.
A better deal that what I get from Charter/Spectrum. They charge me $75/mo for 200 meg service and never deliver more than 110 meg. I've complained and complained and the response is that the speed is never guaranteed. When I offer to pay half the advertised price for half the advertised speed they are flabbergasted and never have a good comeback.$150? ouch! do yourself a favor and get the 1GB plan and buy your own Apple TV.
Holy hell, you are literally doing EVERYTHING wrong.

You are about as split as I am... Milwaukee, WI and Lake Tahoe, CAnot available at my 2 addresses.

I personally think that 1Gbps is overkill for the majority of families.I would love to hear anyone's use case for needing 2GB speeds.
