Re: FIOS scheduled for Bronx NY yet?

Thanks Dave.
Yea i see them a lot but most of the time they are here for a bit and leave further up the hill near Adrian Ave. I think the hold up has to do with some company called Network Infrastructure inc who are making way for new gas main.

He has no reason to lie.They usually have a good idea of how long it will take within a few weeks.

Read that it usually takes 4-6 months for the light to turn green. I'm just naturally cautiously optimistic.

Hey Folks whats new?

Nothing on my end. What i did notice was some of the beige hub boxes are starting to have individual numbers but the one in front of my house still has no number so that means it will be the last one getting light up

Hey Folks today I got an email from Fios TV saying they are already available on my street(Decatur Avenue) and they say now they are waiting to work a deal so they can come into my building. Now thats the hard and horrible part. Man ex Mayor Bloomberg should put a clause on it so that Landlord could not turn Fios away. But oh well at least some light at then end of my horrible DSL tunnel.
