Duke: I'll be the first to let you know when any CLEC bothers with our neighborhood. The are al going for the sweet spot. It has always been economics even for the one wire to your house boys. They still can't figure out how they are going to make $ by losing the second line and replacing it with one that does the job of 2 and pay for the new equipment. For them it is a marginal investment when talking residential service. Duke read the spec. for ADSL it is about 2500 meters. not even 2 miles. Please do a little research on the technology. 5 miles would definitely be a breakthrough. The telcos cannot repeal ohms law as one FERC Commissioner tried to do when addressing electric util. deregulation issues. Let me know the co. that makes the 5 mile chip will you. It is not AWRE,PAIR,WSTL,ORCT or anyone else that can deliver ADSL speeds over 2500 meters at the present state of technology.
