I am about ready to pull my hair out (despite being bald) after being run in circles on the phone trying to ask a simple question.
I have had lots of problems with my Xfinity Internet dropping off 5 or 10 times per day and gotten fed up to the point of starting to order Frontier Fiber. I am in the correct location and my order is almost placed.
My run around with Xfinity led to them coming and checking, saying it was the power company problem. Power company coming and reconnecting my house to the pole and saying nothing wrong. Had to pay $200 to hire an electrician to search for the alleged amps that were getting onto the co-ax cable when there should be none. Electrician could not find anything.
So I figured if I got Frontier Fiber I would have a fiber optic cable that would not have electricity in it and maybe side step the supposed problem.
My friend just told me that the "Fiber" is only on the pole and from the pole to my house is copper wire. I tried to ask that to Frontier and got nowhere.
So my question is, when Frontier says "100% fiber optic" does that mean I have a fiber optic cable coming into my house and some sort of fiber optic modem instead of a cable modem?
Thanks.
