One problem with fiber optics -- it's really flimsy.

Most likely, a new run of fiber optics are needed from the poll to your home. It's expensive, so don't expect VZ to be offering it up anytime soon.

The reality is, as long as you have "a" connection, versus a "slow" connection, the priority is lowered... as your frustration is raised.

Good luck with Verizon's brand new, fantasic, Fios.

hmm are they upgrading the internet for Time warner? i have that service back home. to tell you the truth its hontestly really slow compared to what i have now. i go to School in Rochester NY , and i get 35,000 Download and 15,000 upload yeah our internet is OC3 , we are the leading supplier for internet in the whole North east. But thats cool , sucks coming home in the summer to 5,000 down and 400 up

I can only really speak to Time Warner in New York, but I'll try and help ya with your problem -- The one good thing about TW is that they increase the speeds and try not to increase prices. If you're reporting rates lower than what's advertised, let me know -- more often than not, TW is willing to fix it. Sometimes you need a new cable line, a new modem, or something simple. Usually, it's nothing too complicated.

1-2 up should be coming this quarter or next.

Sorry for the vague info:

Currently in Staten Island only. Should be coming soon to the rest of the system.

I'll say, TW has a lot planned to keep up with the competition -- Verizon.

Lets just say, something you've seen Cablevision offering before...

Now the standard.

1-2 Up is coming...
