margrave Posted June 13, 2023 Share Posted June 13, 2023 Hello fellow Neowinners ... ( we're all NEOWINNING! ) I was wondering if anyone else here might be located in Knoxville, TN? I was wondering if anyone else has KUB Fiber in their area, and if anyone has switched to it? How is it? What do you think of it overall? Thank you for your time, and any responses. hellowalkman 1 Share Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1430245-anyone-here-in-knoxville-tn-ive-got-a-small-question/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Good Bot, Bad Bot Posted June 13, 2023 Share Posted June 13, 2023 (edited) You would probably have more success in any Knoxville subreddit or Facebook group. margrave, WallyMcClure and MightyJordan 3 Share Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1430245-anyone-here-in-knoxville-tn-ive-got-a-small-question/#findComment-598828422 Share on other sites More sharing options...

"its fiber, so it will be good" ha, ok so the connection to the ISP may be good, but what if they only have peering point? or just two? fiber is only as good as its peering and routing... that's why some actually prefer comcast's HFC network to fiber because they have way way way more peering points then the normal ISP... hellowalkman and margrave 2 Share Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1430245-anyone-here-in-knoxville-tn-ive-got-a-small-question/#findComment-598828733 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Good Bot, Bad Bot Posted June 15, 2023 Share Posted June 15, 2023 Why not just try it yourself? Is there a contact? Even than you will usually have like 30 days to try it and if it sucks you will qualify for new customer pricing with your original ISP.

People in the knoxville reddit forum that talk about the kub fiber say it is good. I can't comment about their upstream provider. I live in concord/farragut area, so I won't be able to get them. I've used charter/spectrum for years and its great.
