Meanwhile, in FIOS land...

Few if any people in my area know what it is, much less want it. They're so off that I get 31000/9500 kbps on a 30/5 provisioned line.

I love FIOS.

Their DSL goes downhill every January when they release some new high speed cheapass package. Then I get 200/700 for a month instead of 2700/700. I'm glad I am off their DSL.

wait a minute... you get 3100/9500 on a 30000/5000 package?
either your a business customer or one lucky sob :-P
either way... I think the caps should go higher for customers who get their video service and have those pesky NID devices hooked up to their internet service.. anywho..

simple answer to the dsl overdemand. STOP DSL ADVERTISING!!
the reason there are too many dsl orders is that they create demand from customers who want to invariably churn away from non triple play packages for a while to keep cable companies hungry to resell that "pick a price" triple play:
$89.85, $99.99, $110-120++
Otherwise a-la-carte, its $35, $50, $68 for the triple play components separately.. might as well go to competitors at those prices, and cable companies know this!

Besides, I'd love to see cablemodems do 10mbit upstream, hehe.. Verizon should light some more DARK FIBER on the backbone and RAMP speeds up further!!! Finish 100% of Nassu, Suffolk before moving on to queens! But-- to do this they have got to get down and dirty-- aka deploy fiber on the BACK YARD TELEPHONE POLES, which they have been reluctant to do IN THE EXTREME!!!

Not 3100/9500, 31000/9500. It's the residential $55/month package.

It's really routing specific. I get 2 mbps to some places, 8 to others. I need multiple connections to anything to fullfill 9.5 mbps up, and tons of fulfill 3.85 MBps down.
