I have been waiting and waiting for FiOS to get to my neighborhood, and it is almost here. If you know me, you are probably tired of hearing “when are they going to get to me”. The pictures below are from a few weeks ago. The cables are buried and the new pedestal is in at the end of the street. This week and part of last, they pulled the fiber on the polls of the main road that will eventually link into my neighborhood. It is near. My current service with Time Warner is stable and fast for downloads, but very limited for upload (1 mbit). 10×1 service with a dynamic IP and blocked ports. I want to replace my business line 768k synchronous with static IPs with the FiOS 20×20 static. Offsite backups will be what they should be.
