Roslyn, NY | Why are the uploads still so pathetic?
They have one of the best HFC networks. Seriously, why so stingy when basic Fios is 15/5?

Because DOCSIS can't compete with FIOS on uploads. |

Then you should stay with FiOS if that's important to you. Cablevision can't provide 35 Mbps upload on a residential connection.
If scoring a free Kindle (or whatever promo is out there) is your priority, well, then there's your decision.
What else is there to say? |

Long story short - I am displaced due to Sandy and in temp housing. Optimum is an option, FIOS is not.

Good to know there is a company willing to provide service in that area. Since you are technically not switching, some of the "switching" deals will not be available - they require you to produce a bill from another company. None of the deals require a contract, so no worries about making a long term commitment - though I believe some give you the freebie after a certain number of months of service.
