While I am not surprised, this is extremely disappointing.

Below is a message that I received from the county for whatever it is worth...

The link to check the number of days can be found here www.verizon.com/local/washington-dc-fios/. I have also attached an image

Verizon now shows a day counter for service availability in Hughesville. The counter shows 78 days for my address off of Grosstown Rd. That puts us in early November.

It allows us to watch Netflix on multiple devices without any buffering. It's about as fast and reliable as dsl. Serves its purpose for sure. I will keep it until Comcast or Verizon arrives. Billing is month to month with no contracts so it's no risk.

I will take whichever comes first, I am not overly picky. It will be interesting to see the pricing with and without the competition. Thanks for sharing the information.

That's good to know but, like you I am cautiously optimistic. For now I am using Timbuktu Wireless which is meeting my current need for unlimited data. It is about as fast and reliable as DSL and allows me to stream video and music so I am good for now.

Comcast on Grosstown Rd Not sure if anyone is still monitoring this forum but Comcast is surveying the communities off of Grosstown Rd. It looks like they are heading down Oliver Shop. At this point I will take Comcast or Verizon, whichever comes first.
