Swimmer Posted September 13, 2005 CID Share Posted September 13, 2005 There is alot of government issues when it comes to allowing ISP to offer a service.. Your town might have dark fiber in your area but you town government has yet to sign a contract with Verizon to allow them to service your area. The best bet would be to call Verizon.. if they say that they dont know find a someone in the local government that could find out the information for you..

Swimmer Posted September 14, 2005 CID Share Posted September 14, 2005 if you know there is dark fiber in the area.. then i would think that is should be there as verizon equipment can be installed...

Blunted Posted September 14, 2005 Author CID Share Posted September 14, 2005 i just dont think there is demand for it in my area which is why i think it might be a while cause we have optimum online which is also upgrading to 2/20 so i am stumped and have searched like mad. i dont want to call and get a " i dont know " from them like most isp's but heh i can wait if anyone has info on fios in ny just put it in here please. thanks Quote Link to comment https://testmy.net/ipb/topic/7672-anyone-know-where-fios-is-laying-there-fiber/#findComment-79678 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swimmer Posted September 15, 2005 CID Share Posted September 15, 2005 Yeah my guess is that is going to be their internet/ site to site connection... If they are going to be using fiber that might mean that you will see fiber shortly.. If they are going to be bring in a huge conneciton.. my guess would be that soon it would be available to consumers..
