A small segment of our community was originally built with fiber. After changing hands a few times, it eventually ended up being gobbled up by CenturyTel.

While the (relatively) faster speeds are nice -- 10/768 -- they have yet to fully utilize the system. For example, they run television over fiber, but have yet to add anything other than basic digital cable, with no HD.

I would assume that although they have the capability to push a great deal amount of bandwidth down the line, they are probably limited by the connection they have to Level3.

They have also implimented a system-wide port-blocking scheme whereby most inbound TCP and UDP packets are blocked/NAT'd. This creates a problem with BitTorrent, Slingbox, etc... Thus far, they have refused to unblock these ports. ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20302548 Tue, 08 Apr 2008 12:58:17 EDT
