na in our neighborhood all we have is comcast cable.So when Verizon came out with the fios, we had receive a flyer that a cable contractor in the future will install an outside line for Verizon fios so if we are interested then we can go to them. for service instead of using comcast. a competition thing going on among the cable carriers.My question was how is the service !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Verizon Fios

You won't regret the switch of providers ... main reason why I got FIOS was because of the online gaming (COD 4) ... and man it's off the charts ....

Go for it bro ... no BS there!!!

Re: Verizon Fios

need to know the max speed you ever downloaded and uploaded with utorrent or whatever you use for torrents.

i get like 22/8 with comcast and only pay 33.00 a month

Re: Verizon Fios

hmmm Fios or Comcast.... w/o a doubt Fios. Comcast is copper and Fios is Fiber Optic. The capabilities are vast compared to the limitations of cable. I don't know what programs pricing, and so forth are in your area, but technology wise... Fios is the way to go. I have AT&T Uverse, which is IPTV and has so many capabilities that cable can't even offer. Good luck on the choice, but I know what I do. WWFD, lol j/k

Re: Verizon Fios

I can't wait to get rid of comcast and get FIOS. I play a lot of COD4 so having FIOS would be good.
