Frequently Asked Questions
Whats better... fiber optic, cable, DSL, or wireless? Fiber optic is the fastest Internet option available. If you use the Internet in any way and have the opportunity to sign up for fiber, you should! You will not be disappointed. For current Lightcurve cable modem or DSL customers, we will work with you to switch your service to Fiber. We want you to enjoy your experience with Lightcurve!
Is Lightcurve fiber more reliable than cable modem or DSL? Fiber to the home uses a pure data Ethernet connection. A router would still be required to take advantage of WiFi connections. Because it’s light being transmitted, there is no interference or noise from common items such as radios, motors, power lines, or other nearby cables. This means the clearest signal and best connection for you. Even lighting strikes, which can be transmitted by copper cabling, are not transmitted by fiber-optic cable.
Is there maintenance on fiber? Fiber optic cables costs less to maintain than traditional copper lines, saving us all time and money.
What does 1 Gigabit per second Internet mean? It is a measurement of Internet speed. The national average for residential Internet speed is 10 megabits per second. 1 Gigabit per second is 100 times faster.
Why would I want 1 Gbps service in my home? This is a breakthrough technology that will change the way you connect and bring the world into your home. Speed this fast means that you can:
- Browse the Web with instant page changes and no buffering.
- Gamers will experience an immersive multi-player experience.
- Stream multiple movies simultaneously on devices throughout your home.
What else is different about Fiber? You will no longer experience slow downs when adding new devices or as you gradually changing on-line habits. As the Internet usage has changed, so do the needs of our customers. We have found that even advancements in web page design has resulted in needing additional bandwidth. One example is that Facebook now automatically plays videos. We have also seen a surge in use with iCloud automatically syncing all devices with they hit wi-fi.
What is fiber optic cabling and what are its benefits? Fiber optic cabling is a cable that carries one or more strands of glass. Digital pulses of light carry signals along the line - what we call the "speed of light." Fiber is the top technology for Internet speed and reliability - it offers the highest speeds, best transmission, and highest reliability in adverse weather conditions.
Is this promotional pricing and is my bill going to change like it does with other providers? We believe in clear and consistent billing, therefore we do not offer promotional-period pricing to attract Fiber To The Home customers.
What happens if I subscribe to Fiber To The Home and then move to an area without fiber? There is no penalty for canceling Fiber To The Home service if you move to an area where we do not offer the service.
Can I use my own wireless router? Yes, you can use your own wireless router. We recommend an 802.11ac grade router to receive the best wireless experience. Please note that wireless speeds are dependent on the device capabilities.
Do I have to purchase a fiber modem from Lightcurve? Fiber modems are not currently easily available. We will sell modems, as well as offer them on a monthly lease.
Is the speed the same in both directions (uploading and downloading)? Yes, this is one of the great technological benefits of the service. Our service will deliver 1Gbps upload, not just download. This is becoming increasingly important for home-based businesses, and also supports live two-way video conferencing sessions and other benefits still to be discovered. Actual transmission speeds will depend on your equipment.
Will this work with Wi-Fi? If so, can Wi-Fi handle the entire 1Gbps speed? Yes, it works with standard Wi-Fi routers. To handle full gigabit speeds, a Wi-Fi router will need to use the 802.11ac standard.
