Re: meh!

In my area the number of lines to backbone per user i've been told is capable of faster than that. In fact, they could do gigabit for 2% of customers while keeping everyone else at the current tiers.

The conduit pipes they use to connect the curbside boxes to each other and to the nodes are 4 inch diameter, the wires they use between boxes are quarter inch by 8th inch. You do the math.

Billings, MT		 Multiple and/or redundant pipes to each node.

That makes sense. But when will they offer it?
