Gunning for Google, Comcast Preps Gigabit Internet That Works With Regular Cable. Comcast, the Internet provider everyone loves to hate, is gearing up to offer one-gigabit-per-second Internet service in five U.S. cities this year. The first five cities to see the blazing speed are Nashville, Atlanta, Chicago, Detroit, and Miami. In line with Google Fiber, Verizon FiOs, and municipal offerings at one-gigabit speeds to the home, the new Comcast service will dramatically increase download speeds. Most subscribers currently receive download speeds of 25-100 megabits per second. For the customers with a 100Mbps connection, the increase boosts their speed 10 times over.
