here is some reading for you misinformed user 10 or 20 years whatever fiber only been around for the last 5 years so those claim are bs or bogus! »en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_fiber
If you're just trying to win an argument, its very amusing
reply to jadebangle fiber has been around a lot longer than 5years. HA!
How do you think the Internet was built off FIBER! AOL even built their own Fiber backbone back in the day! TWC has been offering RR for more than 5 years! Excite@home was around long before 5 years ago
you need to do your own research and stop relying on Wiki
Thats very funny for someone who is not on fiber broadband
FTTN fiber to the neighborhood?
I don't consider dsl,cable copper based fiber just cause the backbone aka central office are partially fiber optic. Are you calling analog dialup fiber broadband too because you see the isp uses fiber wire to handle all the traffic? again most of you are still clueless how fiber give amazing bandwidth when connected directly to your home when i said 5 years i meant for average consumer. i never even heard about it before verizon fios came into existent that was in 2003... which mean the majority of us about 99.9 percent. before that it was still in developement so give me a break. dsl,cable is an 80's technology, fiber is 90's but did not come into use for broadband until much later
And you're very funny by saying that just because the last mile is not FTTH the entire thing is not fiber.
You said above that FIBER has only been around for 5 years. I said NO! It's been around longer and now your claiming the last mile because someone proved your wrong.
But then again youre the one that claims that SureWest cable DID NOT buy your cable company but instead is another overbuilder to your area.
You need some help.
And Surewest has had FTTH BEFORE VZ. Just because its not a national company does not mean it wasn't done. Qwest was one of the FIRST Phone companies to do VDSL and offer CableTV. But because it wasn't national or nationwide it wasn't "important huh". You need to get over VZ and stop dreaming you'll have them some day.
And again FIBER WAS AROUND BEFORE CABLE TV service!
