Give me a museum and I'll fill it. (Picasso) Give me a forum ...
FIOS is coming to my neighborhood in a couple of weeks but i can't find technical information that addresses whether I can seamlessly transition to it. My concern is with TV since Internet installation should be straight forward.
I currently have Comcast XFinity which hooks up to my self installed POS house coax plant at their outside NID. There it feeds three separate coax segments that enter the house thru the basement, the attic, and a kitchen wall. The basement segment splits inside the house to service the living room and two locations in the basement. The Xfinity mother-ship DVR is currently in the basement and the other Xfinity boxes connect to it for live TV signals and for DVR service. So They must be able to connect back thru their respective segments through the NID splitters to get to the mother-ship.
As I understand FIOS, it works in a similar fashion. The optical cable terminates at an ONT outside the house and then they hook up to the house cable plant. My question is whether they will be able to hook into the three external COAX segments that terminate outside like Comcast does. I don't want VZ explaining that they need to run new cable around the floorboards or some such travesty.
