| Awesome .. if it's available We can't get it though. Our neighborhood is fairly new, about 6 years but can't get it as Surewest is not available.
Unfortunately, only the new developments are lucky enough to have fiber installed.

The mrs works in management at Surewest so you'd think she'd have a good idea, but it's almost as if the company itself doesn't know what it wants to do. Part of the problem boils down to Surewest hasn't been so profitable as in the past and they haven't been spending as much $$$ to increase the reach of their fiber network. So they're being picky about who's getting the upgrades. Simple as that.
As a side note, Surewest has the capacity to do 100/100 both ways. Right now. Guess why they aren't doing it? Because really nobody else in North America is already doing it. They'll keep adding faster speeds just to stay slightly ahead of their competitors (mainly SBC, Comcast, and Starstream in the Sacramento market). | |
