| reply to KingofCola Re: ZyXel Modem
ZyXel VDSL model was installed by Verizon tech. model
Prestige 861 Series DMT 3/4/5-band, ATM-based VDSL Modem/Gateway
came in the box with Micro filters..
while one could install the modem and router without a tech, the hook-up to the MDU / optical terminal network and connecting FiOS phone would have to be done by the Verizon installer. Did not use the microfilters in the setup though since I already had indoor Westell Wall-Mount POTS / DSL Splitter from a previous install |

| The coax connection is on the Actiontec Router not the VDSL modem. FiOS TV will be available in the City of Philadelphia when Verizon is awarded a cable franchise via City Council vote. That may take awhile to pass in council.
what the Tech did tell me is that all the new condos being constructed have fiber to the condo units, and in the older buildings the MDU is being used |
