TorchTPU is a new engineering stack designed to provide a native, high-performance experience for running PyTorch workloads on Google’s TPU infrastructure with minimal code changes. It features an "Eager First" approach with multiple execution modes and utilizes the XLA compiler to optimize distributed training across massive clusters. Moving into 2026, the project aims to further reduce compilation overhead and expand support for dynamic shapes and custom kernels to ensure seamless scalability for the next generation of AI.

Last year, we stopped allowing restricted access on specific files and folders within a shared folder in Google Drive, and instead required that restricted access be managed consistently via the limited access folder setting. With this update, all items with legacy restricted access will be automatically migrated to use the limited access setting instead. There will be no change to who can see or access the files.

Items that were automatically migrated will show limited access was applied by Google Drive.

Items with limited access applied will show the updated sharing experience.

GFiber provides high-speed fiber internet that actually makes sense. While other providers may hide their true costs in the fine print, we keep it simple. With GFiber, you get speedy, straightforward service with no annual contracts, no hidden fees, and no data caps. The price you see is the price you pay, month after month.

Simple pricing with no annual contracts

We believe in a "no-catch" bill. All residential products are month-to-month, which means no annual contracts or exit fees. Your monthly rate for your chosen product stays consistent.[1]

Wi-Fi equipment and professional installation is included

Every GFiber product comes with the hardware you need to get your home online, including free repairs if you ever need them. You’ll never see a monthly internet equipment rental fee, and  there’s no additional charge for the Fiber Jack or installation in your home. All included equipment is designed to cover up to 5,000 square feet with Wi-Fi.[2]

Equipment included is the latest generations:

• Core 1 Gig: Features advanced Wi-Fi 6E equipment (router and mesh extender).

• Home 3 Gig and Edge 8 Gig: Feature state-of-the-art Wi-Fi 7 routers with a 10-Gig and multiple 2.5-Gig Ethernet ports and up to two mesh extenders.

Unlimited data and symmetrical speeds

All our products include truly unlimited data with no overage charges or speed throttling, unlike other providers who reduce your speeds when you reach certain data thresholds. The symmetrical upload and download speeds in GFiber products mean you’ll look and sound great on video calls (and you won’t get stuck with freeze face), be able to send big files fast, and enjoy instant response gaming.

Nationwide award-winning customer satisfaction, year after year

We’re obsessed with making your internet experience great, and it shows. In 2025, GFiber (formerly Google Fiber) ranked #1 in Customer Satisfaction for Residential Wired Internet Service in the South Region three years in a row and #1 as the most trusted provider. [3] Additionally, GFiber has been recognized as the 4x Readers’ Choice Winner: Best Overall Internet Service Provider of 2025.[4]

99.9% reliability

GFiber maintains 99.9% network uptime[5] because we know that internet is only as good as its connectivity. This reliability is backed by our Uptime Guarantee for Edge 8 Gig and 2 Gig business customers: if your internet connection falls below 99.9% uptime in a given month, you’ll receive a 25% credit on your monthly bill.[6]

So, what's the catch with GFiber?

There isn't one. No contracts. No equipment fees. No data caps. No price hikes after the first year (or ever). No bundles needed for the best price. Just high speeds and steady, transparent pricing, backed by award-winning customer support.

Setting up GFiber doesn't always require a technician. If your address already has a Fiber Jack installed, you can activate service yourself with a GFiber self-install kit. Everything you need will be shipped to you within 1-3 business days after creating your account, and the GFiber App will walk you through an easy-to-follow setup. 

Who’s eligible for self-install? 

Self-installation is an option for addresses where GFiber infrastructure and a Fiber Jack are already present. You can determine your eligibility during the sign-up process.

Your self-install kit

You’ll receive a GFiber self-install kit that includes a Wi-Fi router, two power adapters (one for your Fiber Jack and one for your router), Ethernet cable, and extender (if needed), and instructions.

How to set up your service

1. Find the Fiber Jack: Find the small white device already mounted on your wall.

2. Connect the Fiber Jack to Power: Plug the Ethernet cable into the Fiber Jack’s LAN port and the router’s WAN port.

3. Connect the Fiber Jack to your router: Plug the router into an outlet and wait for the indicator light.

4. Set up your network name and password: Use the GFiber App (iOS or Android) to follow setup prompts, configure your Wi-Fi, and set up your Mesh Extender, if needed.

5. Test your speed: Run a speed test through the app to confirm your connection is active.
