Ordered this about a week ago and was installed this past weekend. I've been been pleased with the service since I was on DSL service for 12 years. I refuse to use Comcast so this is my only alternative to DSL service. With a corporate discount, the cost is about the same(prices shown are retail), and I only watch 1 or 2 Netflix movies, so streaming and data caps aren't a concern for me. What I'd love to see Verizon do is to enable the phone ports on the back of their router so I can dump ATT landline service all together. The cost is basically an additional 40 on my existing 2Gb shareverything plan to bump it up to 10Gb of data, and 20 dollars for access, so an extra 60 bucks on top of an existing Smartphone plan. The cantannae on the side of the house is just a little smaller then a coffee can. My only disappointment is that the router doesn't seem to have the ability to bridge. I prefer using my Asus N-66U router for wireless access in the house, and I ended up having to double NAT it . Aside from that I'm very pleased with the performance of the service, and not using Comcast is a win for me.
