will cox be offering lower prices for the service, because its not really that great compared to whats already available in that area. you can get fiber with a 50/50 up down connection which includes 100/100 within the network for 57.95 a month vs cox offering. this is without any caps, and they also don't throttle anything as well.
»lusfiber.com/custom/?id=4

The following Video, Internet and Phone (VIP) bundles have been combined to make your switch to LUS Fiber easy. Or you can build your own bundle and still take advantage of the best rates. Our pricing is simple and straightforward with no confusing promotional rates or hidden costs. Each of our service offerings will be individually discounted. Our full suite of products and channel lineup will be announced in early 2009. Customers will be notified by mail when LUS Fiber is ready to take orders in their area.

VIP - $84.85
Video: Expanded Basic (80+ channels) = $39.95
Internet: Fast 10 Mbps download and upload = $28.95
Phone: Basic Line* = $15.95

VIP Silver - $137.21
Video: Digital Plus (more than 250 digital and HD channels, access to the Internet via TV, Video On Demand, Pay-Per-View) and HD Receiver Rental = $63.31
Internet: Turbo 30 Mbps download and upload = $44.95
Phone: Basic Line* and Premium Phone Features Package** = $28.95

VIP Gold - $199.99
Video: Digital Plus (more than 250 digital and HD channels, access to the Internet via TV, Video On Demand, Pay-Per-View) and All Premium Movie Suites (more than 40 channels) and HD Receiver Rental = $98.09
Internet: Extreme 50 Mbps download and upload = $57.95
Phone: Basic Line, Premium Phone Features Package and Unlimited Long Distance = $43.95

i hope they will plan to compete with lus because la state law would require cox to offer the same prices everywhere they provide service in the state.

also ATT are already putting up uverse network in jefferson parish and soon new orleans, they are waiting on an issue with jefferon parish before they can go live

As I stated in the other thread it's NOT available all over Lafayette, it's in phases and some parts of Lafayette (outer) won't be able to get FTTH through LUS. This is a great alternative.

i have a question does 3 ip addresses mean i can have 3 individual lines connected to modems in my house for a max potential of 50mb each?

reply to CoxInfoGuy
do you need to have cable and or phone from cox to get the $89.99 price tag?? i have no interest in tv or landline phone

reply to CoxInfoGuy
Is this the Acadiana Market which Lafayette is a part of, or is it just the parish of Lafayette only.
I'm in Crowley.

Just covering my bases.

Do we have a better definition than "several" additional markets?

Available as a pro install only (Install is a one time 99.95 charge) and the monthly price is 139.99. However the
Louisiana market has a introductory price of only 89.99.

Some things to note are:

You get 3 ip addresses

At this time their are *NO* transfer caps on this level of service.

For those curious about what type of modem you get it's a Cisco DPC3000.

These modems are not yet widely available in retail outlets; however, Cox is selling them in our retail locations for $99.99.

OK, let me get this straight.. you mean the "ultimate" tier is the only one getting this and not premier? sorry but that's way beyond what i can afford.

maybe it's time we started asking all of the telcos (including at&t) to start putting down fiber and offering FIOS like products across the country.

someone clear me up that this will effect the PREMIER and the new ULTIMATE?

DOS. 3.0 speeds (fantasy)

Econom: 50/5 $29.95
Pref.: 100/5 $49.95
Premiere: 200/10 $59.95
Ultimate: 300/20 $129.95

Cox, please don't rip us off JUST because we are NOT lucky enough to have FIOS here.. gurrr..

I fail to see why any residential subscriber would need more than 20 megs down. I have 12 and I've never had any complaints.
