Re: I wish they would compete with Charter
I would hope the "likely bundle discount" would drop this down to the $34.99 ballpark, if you have Verizon local/long distance.
Also, I'm assuming you need to be no more than 11,000 feet from the CO, not at least 11,000 feet

| I am hoping they would compete stand alone, I have VOIP now, I think they would get the edge offering speeds like this, stand alone.
At least in those areas that can get either or.

Yeah, hopefully we won't have a buncha people angry because "DSLR SAID THAT I HAD TO BE AT LEAST 11K AND I'M 25K FEET AWAY AND CAN'T GET IT WAHH"
maybe they wouldn't type in all caps. |

Yea, quite a strange technology that works great if over 11K ft, but those people right next door are OOL. Maybe verizon solved the dsl distance problem. |

Thanks for your totally informative post. It's not Verizon's fault this is limited to 11,000 feet. That is as far as the technology allows. For god sakes, some of us can't get more then 320/128 (768/128 plan) and pay the same amount as the people on 1500/384. Doesn't bother me, I use my 10,000/1,000 OOL connection and when FIOS becomes available I'll switch to the 15,000/2,000 package.
