Netcong, NJ | Well why don't you lease a dedicated line with the speed you require to the large non sticky tubes. Bloomberg does it. Just for giggles I called Cablevision about getting "Lightpath" (FTTP) to my house. No problem pay $2,500 to run the glass 9,000 feet from Verizon's CO and then the monthly charge for as fast as I want to go.
It is not a lack of bandwidth it is you want if for free; sorry there is no free lunch. |

$2500 to run fiber 9000 feet? That's a screaming deal, I'd jump on it. Seriously. |

| Maybe, maybe not. What's the MRC and for how long? |

$2500 for a 2 mile fiber run, dedicated to you? WTF are you waiting for? What are the monthly costs once you're hooked up, for, say, 30 megabits symmetric? |

The funny thing is Cablevision's Lightpath closest POP is Hackettstown. What they would do is run it into Verizon's CO and I assume lease a line to their backbone.
This is not a residential line it is a big bucks leased line with guaranteed bandwidth 24/7 plus a guaranteed up time of 99.999 or something %. This is not new Verizon has been offering this since they were New Jersey Bell. Just have DEEP pockets.
I can't put a price on this but the least expensive would be a point to point and I don't have another point to connect to. I would have to negotiate with a backbone provider for a peering arraignment. This is not like a turn key FiOS install.
