Verizon Taking Orders for 7Mbps DSL > ex-GTE = 1500

ex-GTE = 1500

Our extension GTE C.O. out here offers 3000... you sure thats all they offer???

Fire do you have the old Orkit/Fujitsu frame relay modems? If so 1.5mbit is the fastest those can go, because the entire DSLAM only has 1.5mbit for all the customers hooked up to it!

If you can cancel/reorder you'll get a new ATM Westell and welcome to 7mbps

No, I have some flavor of westell modem. I want to say I'm 8000 feet out but I can't remember. I know when I first got caller id it didn't work so they 'fixed' the line and eliminated the 25000 foot loop I was loaded up on.

I think the wire here is smaller too I was told. Last time I called I was told that 1500 was the only option in the area.

modem is a westell b90-210015-04

26 ga perhaps? It's the same situation for me, but my loop is around 15,000 kft and I can get 3 meg just barely. This is directly to the CO; no joke.
