The fact is the 10G offering is only available in a very small number of very specific locations.

Does their device at least support 10Gbps internal networks, I assume? In that way it's still not misleading, in my opinion. Of course the uplink only receives and transmits whatever you pay for (or in that case, what they allow you to pay for based on what is available.)

Their "latest Xfinity Gateway" has a 2.5G Ethernet port: https://www.xfinity.com/learn/internet-service/modems-and-ro... ; you need something else to do 10G.

For their fiber gigabit pro (2+1 gigabit symmetric service) they lease you something like a juniper acx2100, so presumably something similar with an SFP+ port would be used for higher speed fiber plans.

Granted that's just a handoff so I'm pretty sure you're just on your own when it comes to picking something that can route at 10G. I just went with a decisio opnsense appliance and called it a day.
