fiber is a play of words, id hope theyd use fiber for adsl2+ hardware would be very stupid not to...
Fiber to the JWI is still better then no fiber at all... But if really lives at 1KM from the CO... he doesn't even need fiber optic to acheive 16MBPS... just the right slam.
I guess I was pipe-dreaming again being it was Canada Day when I was thinkin about gettin' this Max 16 -it looks good though on their web page.
a couple more questions: Aren't the CO's already Fibred? -Its been years since I worked for Bell -I guess they don't actually put you on Fibre from their CO to your telephone pole ? or do they ?
How about puttin up Fibre from pole -> demarcation point(into house). anyone tried that?
In the meantime, I'll try n talk with their lying sales reps to find out. -------------------------------------------------
Yes I agree finally that, gone are the Days when we were #1 BW country and the mighty Bell and Nortel could have Fibre'ized all the urban areas. We are just junk now compared to many other countries as far as bang per buck goes Internet-wise.
Aren't the CO's already Fibred? -Its been years since I worked for Bell "Not all of them are wired for Fslam or CO oslam"
-I guess they don't actually put you on Fibre from their CO to your telephone pole ? or do they ? "No they dont, but if they did, Bell would be #1 DSL provider"
How about puttin up Fibre from pole -> demarcation point(into house). anyone tried that? "Cost prohibative and will not provide better DSL"
