Wow!  I must say that I am impressed!  I would be happy to get a tenth of that from Comcast.  Congrats!!!!

That is something I will never see until Fios moves into my block.  Gosh, it is in every neighborhood around me.  Even in the same zip code.  So close...  Perhaps I am one of the projected 30% that will never see it though.  Our borough has our poles in our back yards and is swarming with huge trees.  Something that can really cause line problems.  Fingers crossed though. Smile

Is this normal for them to do? So basically you get a boost in download speeds for about a day or two?
