 shof515 join:2008-06-15 Ridgewood, NY | reply to patt2k Yes, he went up on the roof to run the fios cable from the pole to my apartment. He also went in the basement to disconnect the ole pots phone line (that depends on how your phone wiring) |

I've seen Verizon working on the utility poles many times now but their service isn't still up and running. that might be a problem with building management not allowing fios/verizon to install the fios stuff. I think the CO is still on the corner of gates ave and fairview ave which means you should be pretty close and should of gotten it by now. Check with your landlord to see if they were contacted by verizon. Did you also try calling up verizon and asking if fios is available, their site may not be update to date -- Oddly for me, whenever i checked the website it always used to say fios not available for my address. Yet, when i called them on how to lower my phone/dsl bundle price i was given an upgrade to fios triple play which make me eligible for fios. It wasn't until a few days after i ordered fios that the website finally updated to show that fios is in my area/building |

As for Patt2K, the performance of it is flawless, no issues with it since it was installed back in July. |

| reply to shof515 Interesting that you pointed that out when you called "them" , I actually went on CHAT and was asking for services then by accident I checked fios site and it said fios is avaliable like 2-3 days later, I always thought those chat reps are useless.
Give that a try ! |
