    1. there will be some bandwidth aggregation, so the speed is perfectly fine from the contract point of view.

    2. second, 1 gbps on network layer is not 1 gbps on application layer. in other words, only part of the data that you download are actual useful data - there is some overhead.

    3. at such speed, there is no such thing as “internet speed”. there is speed to specific source at the specific time. your provider can only guarantee so much. your source being able to push data to you at the speed your last mile might be able to receive them is not among the guaranteeable.

    4. complaining that your internet only does 650 mbps really is first world problem.
