Default Fiber is better

Go for fiber if you can get it (Fidium or NH Broadband). It has faster upload speed and doesn't go out during power failures because data travels to the central office using photons, not electrons. The cable folks are talking about a hybrid offering, some day, with fiber to the neighborhood and cable to your house. This will raise the upload speed capacity but won't solve the power outage issues. Of course, you are not getting cable tv with the fiber services, but there are plenty of streaming live tv services to choose from that run great over fiber internet.
