I also work for COX, 50% of the trouble is usually a short between the couch and the remote, the other 45% is shitty house wiring, ingress, and other controllable issues. 5% is actual plant BS.

FiOS has it advantages, althought this is the first thig verizon has done to compete...LOL. COX will be upgrading again soon.

Fuck them both.

Wow.
I typically get over 10megabit (top benchmark was around 11mbps) download and close to 2mb up in an APARTMENT COMPLEX with my cable connection. Since fios isn't available in the apt i'm stuck but have been pretty stoked with what they've offered.

In the current market, i'd still have to vote Fios. I'm interested to see what Cox will offer though.

FiOS > Cox

And if anyone wants to be contacted about getting FiOS, PM me your phone number so I can get a damn sales credit. I'm a service tech for Verizon but they make us sell shit, too. I haven't sold dick this year and I need a sale or 2 to meet requirements!! (Oops)

haha do they train you guys to say this? Sounds like they are a little ticked off Verizon is getting everyone to make the switch.


ohh too bad they also told me that the upgrade will not start until 2010
