yes, our fiber circuit is supplied by at&t.

So anyone can get FTTP if they want it.

Anyone at a commercial location can get a number of options from ATT, such as opt-e-man, gigaMAN, etc.

Not the FTTP you're thinking of though. This is not residential FTTP etc.

Does the fiber pass places where people live? It makes cents and dollars to supply a service to people that can afford it. You have a fiber connection and you can resell that service. It makes cents for everybody.

that's not how it works.

fttp that's available to residential locations is provisioned
completely differently than a dedicated tariffed commercial circuit, that runs directly from CO to premise.

everything is different, from the mux'es to the physical/facilities/routing/etc.

it's like saying since there's copper by your house, you should be able to get T1's and T3's, just because the copper is there.

No, I am saying money talks B.S. walks. You have it, anybody that wants it can get it. The problem is they want a free lunch.
