 | Frontier taking Verizons trash I remember when a small time phone company named Citizens Communications ,(Con-Tel and GTE before them) acquired Frontier.I thought this is probably a bad thing.Well,Citizens took Frontiers name and things started to happen.First,DSL became available,and that has had its ups n downs.Then recently the remote that we connect to that converts the copper to fiber just got back-up AC power,WOW ,just like the 20th century. The DSL isn't the greatest , but we live a couple miles from the remote and the remote is 18 miles to the main switching facility in town with god knows how many repair splices in between. |
