MDUs arearen't governed under the same rules as regular housing is. A franchise agreement with a city would get you into most neighborhoods, but inside of a MDU is a different story. Many MDUs have exclusive agreements with communications providers that may preclude Verizon from running fiber within the premises. DSL may be available still if it comes in on a legacy telephone line that wasn't originally covered under an exclusive agreement.

| how do you figure MDUs are governed by the same regular rules as housing is? Any landlord can keep out ATT, VZ, Qwest, Comcast, TWC (except in NY), RCN, WOW or anyone else they wish. the MDU property is private and the gov't can NOT tell them who they must allow in to offer service.
Hell in most cases the MDU owner can kick the Bell company out and only offer Digital Phone by a cable company after all the MDU owner owns the wiring inside the building in almost 99.9% of all areas if not 100%- hence the reason to sell a customer wire maintenance. |
