Eating Fiber later this month...

Emails from LUS1 announces that Fiber service may be starting this month. I can't wait.

On Monday this week, some work crews came by to install some fiber equipment on the telephone pole in front of my house2 and on poles down the street. Here's a couple of pictures of the equipment they installed, that I could tell:

The LUS Fiber site has some pricing info and has more specific info on the video, internet, and phone services offered. I am personally interested in only the internet service, and the 50 Mbps (Download AND Upload) "Extreme" for $57.95/mo has me salivating. Plus the system will have a pretty unique feature: the speed between two LUS Fiber customers within the city will be at the full 100 Mbps speed, no matter which tier they have.

John St. Julien has some more info from the recent announcement on the Lafayette Pro Fiber Blog.

  1. 1. Awww... why didn't I get one yet? I guess my greylisting filter is delaying the email?
  2. 2. And I gladly let them park their trucks on our driveway.
