About to escape from sattelitte internet
I finally recieved a call today that I have been waiting on for months. Fiber optic construction in my area is nearing completion and hookups are going to begin in 60 days, thanks to NY's initiative...
Forum Discussion
Is this for the entirety of NY state?
Is there an article about this? I live in NY state, too, which is why I ask.
Edit: Nevermind, I found the site.
Congrats seriously but trust me even fiber optic users experience slowdowns and problems, do a search. Nothing man-made on this earth is perfect.
Again congrats, sure it will be faster with much lower latency. Progress is always nice.
I agree that there may ocassionally be issues with any kind of internet service, but I would be willing to bet a large sum of money that it will be fewer than I have had with a sattelitte connection. The local telephone company that I will be using has a great reputation and in the 3 interactions I have had with them so far have all been great with knowledgable people and quick to respond to any questions. Any one of the benefits listed in my original post would make the switch worth it, and getting them all makes it a no brainer.
