Hi, Wilfred.

 > 100, 400 Mbit/s, and 1, 2 and 8 Gbit/s

Wow, 8 Gbps would mean you're basically getting an entire XGS-PON to yourself.
That can't make commercial sense for the operator unless they're charging you
a *lot* for that or just contending the line very heavily.

In practice you could give all the customers on a fibre the full speed, their
actual usage would be a fraction of that :)
