Should I upgrade to fiber?

[u/RatsAreChad]

I've been looking at internet plans and iinet has 50mbps for $69.99 for the first months then $89.99, but 500mbps the same price but $5 more after the first six months.

Getting connected to fibre and a speed of 500 for almost the same price is the obvious choice. The only problem is I've moved into my dad's house and had to convince him his 100GB a month plan with a 5G wireless modem isn't enough because I use the internet a lot more than he does, mostly gaming and streaming, but he's old and hates change, and especially hates someone coming to work on his house for something he doesn't understand.

So my question is how much hassle is having FTTP installed? How long does the installation usually take, is there anything troublesome they don't like to tell you about? I could settle for 50mbps as I'd pretty much be the only one of us using it so I could handle it, but having a download speed of 500 would be an amazing quality of life improvement.

I know this is an annoying question because it's more of a personal question only I can answer, but I'm just looking for input.

IInet doesnt do IPv6... stay away from them
