Quantum Fiber
July 18, 2025 I have been fairly pleased with Quantum Fiber's installation team; I just switched a couple of months ago due toa move and this is my first experience with fiber internet. The installation process took several hours; the first day it took about 4 hours but the duo that was at my residence were very polite and kept me informed on what was taking so long (installation of fiber lines, etc.), and when it was not completed that day they were extremely apologetic and promised to come out again as soon as their scheduler let them. It took a few days, but one of the original duo did come back and continued to be extremely professional to the point where I was very impressed. The service itself has been okay; we have had two hours-long outages due to DNS issues but I am tech-savvy enough to be able to bypass that by using Google's public DNS service so it has not been a huge issue for us. The speed is fast and there doesn't seem to be any slowdown. I'm pleased enough so far that I hope I can get Quantum Fiber if I move again.
