    I think their point is that Ethernet will never go away so long as residential network speeds are below the cable capacity, which frankly I don’t see happening ever

      I agree that Ethernet isn’t going away any time soon and I promise I’m not being intentionally obtuse here but exactly what do you mean when you say “Ethernet will never go away so long as residential network speeds are below the cable capacity…”

        Network bandwidth rarely approaches 25gb/s in residential applications, it’s unlikely that you will bottleneck at the Ethernet with its current capabilities.
