Re: FairPoint

FTTH sounds good...too bad Fairpoint and Verizon have spent 2 years convincing rural consumers that are not informed of upgraded technology that DSL is currently the latest and greatest while customers in populated areas can enjoy fiber to the home. Glad you have fiber, but we are never going to see it now.

Re: FairPoint

You were never going to see it anyway with VZ. Why not give Fairpoint a chance. Let them prove you right before you get too depressed...

Re: FairPoint

We were never going to see it in NH anyways?

That's why there are around 10-15 communities in southern NH that has FIOS right not. I'm not talking small towns either, but a few of the bigger cities in NH. Plus Verizon was planning expansion of FIOS to another 10 communities, with Manchester on the list. Manchester is the largest city by population in NH.

Verizon was also actively procuring franchise agreements with each area for FIOS TV as well. The only reason this all stopped was because of the sale to Fairpoint. If there was no sale pending I'm sure FIOS roll out would still be happening in NH.
