AT&T has a strange idea of what fiber means. In my area, they run fiber to the neighborhood distribution boxes (one is literally 25' from my front door), but copper to the houses, so they max out at 12mbps (they say 14, but it's really 12). They refuse to run fiber to the house, even tho in my area it's all overhead drops, so super easy.

This, of course, is insane...
