Re: I can't help but to see it differently said by Boogeyman:People are upset that they are implying that the fiber to the node in TWC's network is the same as fiber to the home in VZ's. Sorry but I missed the part where they ever said that. What i've seen them say in their ad's is that they use fiber in their networks too. -- The Coyote captured the RR!

| They arent saying it, they are implying it. Kind of like how hand soap says its antibacterial, but doesnt tell you that it has a fraction of the amount of antibacterial ingredients that the stuff the hospitals use does. -- Im Your Boogeyman, Thats What I Am |

 RickPremium,MVM join:2001-02-06 Waterbury, CT | lol. but why shouldn't they be able to IMPLY and SAY what they've had since 1998? I was getting 1500k ~ 2000k speeds coming off RR's network...RR's FIBER TO COAXIAL network...when the rest of the world was heavily engaged in paying AOL for less than 56k dial up service.
RR's ENTIRE network is comprised of HFC..whereas Verizons fios is in but a minor portion of their's...with YEARS more needed to fully develop it.
But yet..Verizon runs around talking about Fiber like it's the holy grail..
and TW can't talk about theirs without being accused of "implying" that it's like Verizon's? The MAJORITY of verizons network is much slower DSL than TW's HFC network is.
Again..if anyones pumping up the propaganda based on REAL World..company to company comparisons..
It's certainly not TW who is doing it! -- The Coyote captured the RR! Roadrunner Rick is now Comcastic! |

 jmn1207Premium join:2000-07-19 Ashburn, VA | The campaigns discussed in the article are being implemented in areas where FiOS is in direct competition with Time Warner Cable's products.
And I think the FiOS customers promote fiber like it's the holy grail, not Verizon.  |

 | reply to Rick I live in Lexington, Mass and have Verizion FIOS and it is hands down the most reliable and fastest connection I've ever had. The internet connection totally blows away the cable modem I had with Comcast and the HD television is superior even to what I've watched with DIRECTV. I don't care who had what first, the only argument I accept is performance and FIOS has it. |
