A swing and a miss for Qwest

It's good that Qwest is starting to deploy FTTN, like AT&T is doing, but using ADSL2+ instead of VDSL is stupid.

At least AT&T did that right. So they can offer their users video, phone and high speed internet instead of just internet. Not only that, but AT&T's internet is cheaper, too. AT&T users can get 18Mbps/1.5Mbps for $65/mth. When AT&T starts deploying VDSL2+ and pair bonding, it's going to smoke whatever Qwest has.

It would have been nice for AT&T to have FTTH like Verizon FiOS, but it's still better than Qwest.

I don't what exec though that ADSL2+ was the way to go, but they are going to get beat by the cable companies, Verizon and AT&T.
