Running Fiber Optic cables to the house is something that the cable & phone companies are doing only in new subdivisions here for the past year or two and only because they can drop the optical cables into the ground as the houses and streets are being built. For existing subdivisions that have fiber, the fiber optic cables only go as far as a neighborhood box (called a node), then existing copper wires brings it to your house. At present the cable & telephone companies can not run fiber optic cables to houses in neighborhoods that have not been plumbed for them at the start.
The good side of that is that you can get very high speed internet if you can afford it.
The downside is that third party cable internet companies (those that piggyback on the existing cable infrastructure) are cut out of the picture for a few years until the CRTC (the canadian governing body for telecom kinda like the American FCC) grants them permission. In short you are held hostage by the major infrastructure owners (Rogers Cable and Bell for us).

Ping is 30 ms
30 mb/s download and 3 mb/s upload.
The cables were only for phone back then and nothing were changed they only came to install the router.
DGN and something from Netgear and it runs smoothly in there!
So idk if it depends from country to country

I suspect that the fiber they are putting in to your place Karren is FTTN (fiber to the node) and standard copper cable from the node to your house. They put that into my old place early last year.
My new house (was just built last Dec.) has fiber right up to the house (FTTP - Fiber To The Premises) and my ISP is offering 1gb internet (cable). Gotta have really deep pockets for that though ($150 CA/Month - dollar value is close to $AU these days). All I can afford is 60mb service - gotta stretch my pension $ as far as I can get them. All new subdivisions are getting FTTP
you and your brand new house fwaku
I got FTTN but its ok 1/2 the time.

Fiber is not always the better solution, anyway.
