Re: Should be FIber

interesting because you reviewed them as a company that they took over.

I wish they did then most of us would be on fiber optic symmetrical connection by now
superior to asymmetrical that aren't design for uploading, big on download, small on upload.
Like ethernet 100/100 in both direction
Full Duplex ethernet is 200/200 in both direction

Again. the company you have reviewed: Surewest WAS actually Everest as even your links above say that. And you should read this:

Are you making enhancements in Kansas City now that SureWest has acquired the company?

On the network side in Kansas City, we plan to add 2,000 new residential homes on the hybrid fiber-coax network while creating a fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) network starting with a release of 8,000 FTTH homes in 2008 that will deliver enhanced bandwidth capabilities on the network to improve our data and video products.

They're HFC network in areas but also FTTH which Surewest is known for.

You're actually provider is NEVER SureWest until recently. It was a local company. SureWest just bought them.

Which does NOT make SureWest your 3rd provider/option just because they bought someone else. Also you don't count Telco's U-Crap as an "option".

surewest is my 3rd provider that provide telephone, tv and fiber internet
They were nonexistent not long ago
I still have att and comcast
I can have all three now lol but its costly
everestkc aka everest kansas city is not my previous provider
everest was bought out or taken over by surewest due to how successful they are in california area
everest is a cable tv and copper based internet company that has never served in my location, they serve only in kansas city which is like 150 miles away

so yes I am correct I am still with ATT and Comcast
surewest is now my 3rd provider

End of story.

Full Duplex ethernet is 200/200 in both direction

Full duplex ethernet is still 100mbps in each direction. The concept of full duplex (vs. half duplex) does not increase the amount of bandwidth available, but just allows the bandwidth to travel in each direction at the same time. Effectively, you can be transferring data @ 100Mbps between hosts in both directions (i.e. uploading and downloading) at the same time. So collectively you can get 200Mbps if you add both the uploading and downloading, but it is not 200Mbps each way.
