The Zipstream and Internet pages are where a household decides whether to pay $65.94 for a Gig instead of $39.94 for Standard. Both pages compare Zipstream with an "Essential 200MBPS" plan that is not among today's offers, and they disagree with each other: 1,000 photos take 2m 51s on Essential on one page and 1m 25s on the other. Nothing on the site mentions the multi-gig speeds (up to 5 Gbps) your own press releases announce for newly built fiber, while AT&T Fiber advertises "speeds up to 5 GIG" on its own page.
First action
Swap "Essential 200MBPS" for "Standard 400 Mbps" on both pages and use one set of numbers.

Why it works
Replace the widget with one shared component that compares the three plans you sell (Standard 400, Ultra 600, Zipstream 1 Gig) on household tasks (people, devices, 4K streams, game downloads, work calls), and recommends a plan. Where an address qualifies for multi-gig, show those tiers after the address check. Use the same numbers on every page.
Comparing a Gig with a plan nobody can buy makes the upgrade look smaller than it is, and conflicting numbers make careful buyers distrust both. A clear comparison of real plans moves more households from Standard to Ultra or Zipstream, at $10 to $26 more a month for 24 months, and puts multi-gig where it answers AT&T.
