Re: Again as long as you are within 11K of CO... Are you sure that the pair bonded service, albeit at lower speeds, can't be deployed farther than 11K feet from the CO? I'd think that 12/2 would carry just as far as 6/1, and 6/2 as 3/1, etc. |

2 edits | Pre-qualification tool states I am out of range and I have confirmed this on the phone with sales and tech support.
Also I am around the corner from my RT and I am provisioned on the RT at 6Mb/768. I am over 11K from the CO, if I were provisioned from there I would barely get 1Mb. (Would have to verify the exact speed, but it doesn't make sense considering 6Mb/768 from the RT).

| The company's owner is a member of this site, and seems like a nice guy.
Perhaps if you PM him, they can just put you at a "best effort" option. I am quite sure with bonding you could double your current speed. |

| This has been already discussed in the Sonic.net Forum.
Here is the reply where Dane states the 11.1K limitation.

your on an RT which will kill you from ever having the service. ATT could go around and put everyone on RTs and kill them over night.
ISPS and CLECS are NOT allowed to have access to the RTs. |

| Yes I know I am on a RT and I is why I said 11K from the CO not the RT 
The RT is why I am getting 6Mb/768 today.  |

2 edits | What would be revolutionary is getting decent copper speed to go farther, not just faster.
Sure fiber is the future in the urban setting, but rural users are still left out of the loop. It would be great if sonic (and other indy telcos) would also focus on new technology that will benefit those of us that are out of cable/fiber/dsl range. |

| Heard of the AdrenaLine DSL booster? Lots of rural telcos use it. CenturyTel (now CenturyLink) and Frontier are two big examples of this.
You can milk more feet out of DSL. It's just spendy and the ROI may or may not be there when you're used to serving VDSL customers in a very populous area on triple play. |

I said the RT is what kills you from having any service expect what ATT offers you.
IF ATT was smart they'd start deploying RTs like mad along with U-Verse services. They expand their coverage and can convert more customers over to them. a Win Win for them. |
