Re: NON - Qwest people "sigh"
The comment on Aerial drops is such a bogus in WA here most of our stuff is all underground. Verizon comes in and runs the fiber, they have a very efficient team that does it to might I add. |

Must suck to be the captive customer of a phone company that not only won't upgrade but sits there making excuses about how it just can't be done.

No, that's actually a very legitimate point and one I'd not really considered- running aerial is going to be a lot cheaper than buried fiber. He didn't say all of Verizon's plant is ariel, only most of it- I'm sure they are running buried fiber in places, with most being aerial. |
