Verizon is still going to run fiber to the ONT mounted at your house (if I read the article correctly), they're just going to change the way the signal is distributed through the house.
This is a good thing. At least fiber to the wall.said by N3OGH:Quite frankly, I would rather run my own cat 5 in my house, and I don't think the TV service is coming to my town any time soon. Franchise issues.
Of course, I have a ranch house with an open basement, so running cat 5 in my basement is a breeze..
I agree with you here BUT this is a site mostly for people who know either the advantages of this and/or know how to do it. Newer houses are being wired up for this but older houses with those that do not know will be the issue.
