1 edit | Another roll out of FIOS in So. Calif?
I had a Verizon DSL tech come out to do some troubleshooting here at my place in Long Beach, Ca. and I asked him if FIOS was gonna come to Long Beach soon. He said he wasn't sure but that they are gonna roll out FIOS in Westminster, Ca. soon. I asked why Westminster, he said Westminster had a large CO. I just though I'd share this info for those of you in the Westminster area.
So, is this what they do? Do they install fiber where they have larger CO's? |

1 edit | I don't know about Westminster but they are rolling through Chino at breakneck speed. I have no idea when they will actually light the pipes but it's just across a main street only two blocks away. Two weeks ago they were a 1/2 mile away. It looks like they are rolling east from the CO (~5,000 feet from me) and south from the 60fwy (1/2 a mile). It also looks like they are starting in the middle-middle class ($400k) homes and rolling towards the upper-middle-middle class ($500k) homes and the business district. They are still miles from the upper-middle class ($700k) homes. Remember this is Chino not OC. Prices are about $100K less rediculous...

| Man.. I'm still waiting in Huntington Beach. They were supposed to have like 90% of the city wired by March. As of now, there is no evidence they've even gotten to my part of the city, and asking around I've only heard from one person I know that has even been offered it. You don't even see the trucks around much, at least on the west side of the city. I haven't seen one in several months.
Does anyone know the status of HB? |

Just noticed an ad in the local paper in Chino/Chino Hills and Verizon has a full page add announcing their FIOS service. I called and inquired and was told I should get a FedEx package in about 2 months time but definately by summer. We'll see! |

Chino Hills, CA | The Verizon installers came in at about 12:45pm and were out by 3:30pm. I've got 15/2 and the speed is just utterly amazing. I'm near SQL Canyon, right by the Albertson's grocery. |

It looks like Verizon has or is in the process of running fiber in Chino Calif from the 71fwy to Monte Vista between Riverside and Philly. That takes in most of the city's 1960-70's middle class homes. Today I saw the working the Chino Ave to the tracks - Pipeline to Monte Vista area which are 70's, 80's and 90's homes. Oddly enough that bypasses my town home community, and much of the city's apartments and older homes.

| I work at Verizon(fiber slicer in HB) and its true Westminster is next. The equipment is going in the CO. It will take quite a while, due to the fact that its a very,very,very,very large CO. As for HB, its moving along but I dont even think its near done. We still have alot of areas to finish. And from what I've heard Fountain Valley is posing a problem, the city is being quite difficult. |

@rr.com | Any idea when the magnolia/atlanta area across from edison high school will be lit? I know the fiber has been laid, and it seems like there has been no action in months. |

The verizon installer said the city would only issue 5 permits at a time. Verizon could not work under those conditions so.... the went to Chino. One small area in Chino Hills has fois, it was completed before the permit crunch. |
