Re: This could get interest There's more to running a cableco than user installs. If there wasn't, cable guys would get paid $10/hr.
As for HFC vs. DSL the network topology is different. Cable is a shared bus, and thus all equipment would have to be replaced from where the fiber stops to get unshared.
As to VZ getting rid of copper plant, they're just leaving it hanging. Fiber is too expensive to install unless someoneis going to get fiber based services with it, at least while your copper plant is still good.
Again, if it was easy to run a cableco, everyone would do it. Oh wait...WindJamer...let's discount that joke. Sorta like Fairpoint with DSL I'm afraid.
And why would you buy a network, then sell it off? Not sure I'm getting you on that.
Also, found any big cheap datacenters in St. Louis yet? There are a few but the bandwidth prices reflect being a secondary market. |

| If you want your data centers to search for them. Many are not listed as a Data Center or a Colo. and some are not listed period.
DSL is shared as well. It is shared at the DSLAM. The old claim that DSL is not shared needs to be given up on. ALL internet is shared and DSL CAN be slowed down if you add to many people to the DSLAM if there is not enough available bandwidth for everyone.
And as far as WindJamer? What about Charter now? they're a joke too. They're the stupid ones for buying all the areas they could for a prem. and then losing their ass on them. Broadstripe must be a joke too. They went to file for bankruptcy and came back with a new name- Just that. Broadstripe. Nobody would want to do business with the old name. What about Suddenlink? they changed their name several times and bought several small markets for a prem. and customers pay out the ass for those services.
Also Fairpoint DSL is only considered a joke by the people on this site and the Unions. |
