I'm about to move away but currently I cheat Comcast out of gig pro in the Boston area for the price of regular gig service, $90/mo for fiber to the basement, 2gig symmetric sfp+ and a separate 1gig symmetric rj45. Highly recommend if you can avoid paying the full $300/mo price (not sure if the full price has changed in 5 years but that's what it would have been if I didn't confuse the fuck out of customer support to get them to incorrectly bill me). I've tested both lines simultaneously and was able to max out both at a combined 3gig up/down using 2 simultaneous speed tests.
