Haha I'm glad you found it inspiring - I only ever intended for it to be a temporary exercise in overkill networks but I love squeezing ISPs for what they're worth and I just kept getting lucky.
Beware that getting multi gig wan is a very good excuse to overkill your network with 10gig firewalls, switches, and the latest bleeding edge draft-standard-based wifi gear, on the plus side you will always have a retort when someone online says you could never need mgig home gear because surely your wan can't be more than a gig anyway.
I'm at 10g internal for what matters, with a unifi dream machine, so 10g firewall could work, my limiting factor has always been that fucking uplink :(
Visiting a rural island off the coast of sweden in a few weeks. Better fiber for cheaper. Than down the street from fucking google.
Oh fuck you so much comcast. Bless you sir, blessings upon you and your house.
