| Re: We addressed this problem in 2001. said by wishcom  :We purchased one of those overpriced T-1's, distributed it amongst local businesses, and it took off from there. Now we've got 13 towers and a different upstream connection to the internet (a fiber-optic upstream at our new datacenter.) Who supplies your FIBER connection? Money talks, you know what walks. You must be making money or you would not still be in business. | |

You must be making money or you would not still be in business. More then likely AT&T. While I think it's great what they are doing, as of now, there are better solutions for both business and resedential users. Both comcast and AT&T serve in their coverage area as of now, and both are for the most part in this area (for the most) fairly reliable. | |

| Re: We addressed this problem in 2001. yes, our fiber circuit is supplied by at&t.
and, a correction - no, att or comcast do not serve the MAJORITY of our coverage area. att and comcast don't touch the Verizon territory where we're located.
not sure why dsl or cable are a better choice considering the contracts, poor technical support, and asynchronous limitations... but if you're looking for the cheapest service available they're great. | |

Spring Grove, IL | Re: We addressed this problem in 2001. Anyone at a commercial location can get a number of options from ATT, such as opt-e-man, gigaMAN, etc.
Not the FTTP you're thinking of though. This is not residential FTTP etc. | |

This is not residential FTTP etc. Does the fiber pass places where people live? It makes cents and dollars to supply a service to people that can afford it. You have a fiber connection and you can resell that service. It makes cents for everybody. | |

| Re: We addressed this problem in 2001. that's not how it works.
fttp that's available to residential locations is provisioned
completely differently than a dedicated tariffed commercial circuit, that runs directly from CO to premise.
everything is different, from the mux'es to the physical/facilities/routing/etc.
it's like saying since there's copper by your house, you should be able to get T1's and T3's, just because the copper is there. | |

No, I am saying money talks B.S. walks. You have it, anybody that wants it can get it. The problem is they want a free lunch. | |
