Re: [Embarq] 40/20 in Wake Forest, NC

40/20 is delivered over VDSL2 in legacy Qwest markets. It's a Qwest tier and may never make it over to the legacy CenLink/CenTel/Embarq side. 25/2 is a legacy CenLink/Embarq tier, on the other hand, and uses bonded ADSL2+. You probably won't find that in a legacy Qwest market for another few years either, though it sure would be nice if it was available since basically anywhere that can get 12/896 on Qwest now would be able to get 25/2 via bonding (VDSL2 has a very short range for speeds like 40/20...think in the couple-thousand-foot range, whereas 25/2 bonded ADSL2+ can hit 6000+ feet and still deliver advertised speeds).

well its time to innovate or die, because the rumor mill says TWC are upgrading from 50/5, to 50/25 soon around here. DSL is dying, who am I kidding.

I guess since I'm in an ADSL2+ market, that I won't get this:
