A Chink in the Fiber?
I talked about my new FIOS service recently and the speed increases. This serves both my phone and internet access, so downtime is a major inconvenience. My service went out for the first time today (internet and phone). I had not lost service in 2 years on my old fashioned copper DSL. Now to be fair there is a bunch of construction happening around my community and when we called in, we were told that a crew had already been dispatched to find the break in the fiber and fix it. Since there is all this construction, this may have been an issue even for old fashioned copper wires. Luckily I still had internet access thanks to my Treo. I'm back up now after a little over 2 hours.
