Cable is here but costly, as is satellite, and wireless..... 600 feet from Hwy. DSL is running down that trunk to/from next town....... and I can't have it because the line I'm on in that same trunk is over 12,000 feet from its hub station...... yet my friend in Oklahoma with Pioneer Telephone 30 miles from town just got DSL before Christmas...... I just have to wonder if some of us are being treated fourth rate in a third world way on purpose......]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19779445 Fri, 11 Jan 2008 03:58:08 EDT Re: Lol http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19765389 jubangy :

I want to drop TWC to get a little more upload, but only if I can switch to fios when they switch it on. No point in being locked into an old technology.
According to the signup page, when Fios becomes available they will automatically switch you.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19765389 Tue, 08 Jan 2008 23:30:52 EDT Re: Lol http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19763035 sansri88 : I'm like 18,200 feet from the CO.

Really? I am surprised! Why? I have DSL,and I don't believe I am that far away from you....

That said, 47 bucks a month? get out of here, I am paying 29.99 for my 3M and for less than 47, I could get Comcast high speed internet at 6....

It is actual distance of the wire so if it is routed around your neighborhood and you are at the end of the line, you may not be able to get or get degraded speeds. However, VZ was not running any new fiber at the end of '07 because budgets were used and quotas achieved. They will be out running new fiber and lighting up wherever they can as of the new year '08 which is good news for the remainder of NJ. 11 new S NJ communities just lit up. »www.verizon.com/nj]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19762133 Tue, 08 Jan 2008 15:12:17 EDT Re: Lol http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19761702 wdoa :

If you're in VZ territory, chances are you'll be getting FiOS before anything else.
Unless you are in Masachusetts where Verizon is in a pissing match with the state and refuses to extend FIOS in the state beyond their current FIOS footprint.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19761702 Tue, 08 Jan 2008 13:43:31 EDT Re: Lol http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19760090 shashinka : you can sign up for DSL and once they install FIOS they will switch you over.
