^ and I'm sure it will be named Lighting Ethernet and people will salivate over it.
While the rest of the industry has likely moved on to 10gb ethernet.

The rest of the industry is going to go to 10GB within a year when the vast majority of users don't even have gigabit internet yet? Right.

docsis 3.1 is going to really help get closer to that 1Gbit up/down, and glass fibre projects for rural areas are becoming way more affordable for private companies and more and more cities are believing in being connected properly.

Really? If I had full access to my 300Mbps connection on the apple TV, then all download times would be cut in half. Maybe you don't value time, but I do

You obviously don't value your time enough to upgrade your router...

AC routers aren't that expensive.

When are you ever going to stream something above 100mbps?

The stuff people complain about here is ridiculous.

Well as I stream a lot of sport, having the extra would come in pretty handy!

...and if Gigabit comes in the next update, the same people saying "what's the point" and "you don't need it" will be here hailing it as "awesome to have! Way to go Apple! The best gets better!", etc, etc.

I love Apple stuff, but the lengths some people will go to defend every single thing they do is so nauseating.

aTV4.1 will have Gigabit and Optical ports and probably UHD, although we don't actually need any of them today

Like the nighthawk r7500 is a worthy little investment.
