Re: This was a factor when...

Those stats are a tough swallow. Remember, 15% of all internet users still use dial up....

I would say this would appeal to a very limited amount of people. As with all home purchases, location, price, school system, square footage, and general condition of the house are usually more of a swaying issue than if there is municipal fiber. Though, if you find everything you are looking for, and have fiber, that would be a plus....

? wasn't FTTH, but "very high speed internet"

Actually the survey question wasn't FTTH. It was "very high speed internet, such as fiber". I think that also includes coax cable, especially Docsis 3 implementations.

LOL. Think the FTTH Council is exaggerating just a bit to make their point??
Also, anyone want to take any bets that the SC developer who did this survey is running fiber to his development?

Yeah it sounds kind of hokey...on the other hand.....in the back of your mind it would still be a consideration. Would you buy into an area that was served with dial up or satellite?

But yet again...keep imposing caps, throttling, and using other traffic shaping methods and people won't care anyways!
