| My install My primary install went great--for the most part, since we wired the Ethernet cables ourselves (an extra one for redundancy), everything took slightly more than 2 hours They were working in tandem with someone @ the central office AND the node to 'get it right' but had some minor difficulty (lit the wrong fiber)although everything worked out. Let's not forget this was late 2004ish.. when they were first learning to DO installs right. Of course it was 15/2 back when some of the bellsouth, sbc, att people were getting sub 1 megabit cablemodem/dsl still... I bet that makes you madder! The guy that came to install the TV later on was a prick.. sorry to say. In EVERY company there are people who are just lazy, or will do the ABSOLUTE minimum to get things working and leave. Since 2004, each of the phone, internet AND tv have crapped out once or twice in a blue moon.. but I don't really hold that against them.
:->
My downstream is great.. the only real complaint is that I would like my upstream more rock solid and closer to or dare I say a few kilobits over 5 megabit please.. now it goes from 3.9-4.6 depending on NODE traffic, and the wider Verizon ISP backbone (90%)& related internet congestion (10%). I guess this will be fixed somewhat when they get around to doing GPON upgrades. |
