Same here, WTF. They ran the lines in Kenmore so I just need it to my house.

I heard they are having issues with FiosTV and the monopoly Time Warner has on cable. Not sure if it’s true, but come on!

i live in village of op. Never had the fios go down and the speed is excellent… last time we did a connection test we were getting a solid 9mb down and like 3 up iirc. Ive been pretty happy with it. My dad has the home fone, fios tv and internet through the fiber, and loves it… pays like 100 a month or so

I’d be more than happy with the 19.99 3MB/768 DSL they gave me for life after I ordered FIOS and they accidentally the lines to my house if the fucking thing didn’t disconnect every 5 seconds when it rains.

it’s probably true… you are probably too far away from the closest bridge/amplifier. Our work is right on the cusp and we are still on 3mb/768k per line however it is less stable. They used to limit us to 1.5 and it was solid. we only use them for web browsing though so i don’ really give a F.
