Charter just increased my bill, and now for $5 more I can get a fiber connection from the city. So that's what I'm doing. They will provide a new modem for free (technically free, I suppose). I'm lucky enough to live in a place where they're municipal competition, even though Charter has fought it repeatedly.
The one I have is Docsis 3 (maybe 3.1?), but I have no idea how fiber modems are categorized. Maybe I should look into that ๐ฌ .
