Re: it's about time "Comcast has the same equipment available to them as OOL."
yes they do. and if the cable plant is in anywhere near the same shape as the plant in OOL territory, the speeds would be nearly the same, but comcast withholds as much BW as the sole proprietor in the monoploized area because they want to squeeze as much money as they can out of their users.
all i want is the choice of several providers the same way people can choose their provider and isp on the dsl side.
i think it is safe to assume that cable plant is in great shape in the comcast territories as they are upping speeds to try and appease us. too little too late.
"Why should comcast care when OOL has more customers? Why should comcast pay to fix that amplifier when OOL clearly has a considerably larger interest in having it fixed?"
they should care the same reason every other ILEC has to care and fix network problems when its not your customer out of service....cause the government forces them to.
i dont think anyone actually believes these huge companies care a whit about any of us.
