Re: Don't look for Fios in rural areas - maybe ever said by Scatcatpdx:I would say dittos with apartments. I am very skeptical we will see fiber. If Verizon wants, they can just send a letter to the super that the POTS to a particular building is being retired on XX/XX/XXXX, if no arrangements are made to upgrade the demarc, the building will loose all service b/c of lack of access to the demarc/ROW. End of story. |

Laguna Hills, CA | No I'm saying a complaint could be filed if Verizon arbitrarily says POTS will be retired on X date. |

The law doesn't say what technologies are to be used and how Verizon must build and operate the network. Aslong as they offer copper for CLECs they are in the clear. The FIOS ONT is just a mini-RT. |
