Re: Oh, but I thought it would never happen?

said by dadkins:

Guess what!
I have Comcast 16meg service but there is no FiOS and no U-Verse - explain that!
------------------------------
We're Sorry

AT&T U-verse service is not available for this address or phone number as entered
------------------------------
Meanest thing here to "compete" with Comcast is AT&T DSL(*NOT* U-Verse) @ 6mbps.
My previous 8mbps Comcast was plenty to hose AT&T DSL.

Yet, here I am...

Config file d11_m_sb5100_speedtierextreme2_c01.cm
Same here

I also have 16meg service but there is no FiOS yet in philly!

Re: Oh, but I thought it would never happen?

Yeah comcasts home market and there is fios near you.

Simple question, why can't any one not surrounded by fios or a faster competing service get these speeds ? Why can't some in say new hampshire get the speeds unless fios is in the area ?

This me too shit with maybe 8 exceptions is really not the point. Some times i think guys like dadkins and you just like to pat themselves on the back about beating a market by luck and location.

I have 16mbps and no competition... as I stated above.
If you cannot get it where you are - uhm, sorry!

An actual FTTH? No.

Re: Oh, but I thought it would never happen?

Then like I said your the exception. Every one else is only seeing these speeds where there is competition from other providers.

Read the thread , I just read first 8 posts , they are all in competing lands. Look at the states its offered , all competition. Get over it dude , comcast isn't offering this on the goodness of their heart , they are doing it to compete.

You go cheer on comcast in those threads. I'll stay and actually realize that comcast as well as the telcos don't raise speeds where there is no competition. I am not a follower of that line of bullshit.

Re: Oh, but I thought it would never happen?

They are doing it to compete... why is it that many of us have no other services(not just here, in other states as well) and yet we have Blast?

Maybe it sucks to be where you are... I don't know.
It doesn't suck here!

LMAO!

Re: Oh, but I thought it would never happen?

F.W.I.W., here is yet another MEEEEEE TOOOOOO post.....

I've had Blast (automatic unannounced unexpected upgrade, same price) for over two years now in central N.J.

FiOS wasn't then, and still isn't anywhere in sight around here. Go figure... Y.M.M.V.
