So, I've had this service for 18m or so. If you hardware supports the speed, i.e., is new, then you can enjoy the benefits of crazy fast downloads. I tested via my office VPN and could download a 500Meg file in about 3 minutes where I showed 26 down / 35 up. When I downloaded that same 500Meg (non-cached) it seemed like less than 1s, where I showed 575 down / 876 up. If you don't have updated NIC/OS/etc, then you won't get the benefits of Gig speed. Not sure that's in the advertisement.
For 2018 the chart looks like:

Average Download Speed increased 133.5% and Upload Speed increased 106.5%.
And recall the 2017 chart looked like:
And the 2017 numbers were:
