Reply to comment by frissonFry in Optimum: Dozens of fiber lines slashed in act of vandalism impacting Fairfield County customers by jaydecay123

A lot of companies claim fiber when the fiber is just running to the drop and it's copper to the house.

The GoNetSpeed coverage ends at both ends of my street, but doesn't cover anything in the middle because of underground lines. In that short distance they could still offer 1Gbs to everyone on my street if they were allowed to tap into the underground copper but if I had to guess, they can't do that because of line ownership. It's all a bunch of bullshit.
