We are practically neighbors - crazy.
We are in this weird vortex of 'new stuff' - I grew up in PV where we got Cox Cable (5mb down, 5mb up) back in what must have been 1995 - the weird thing is that the sheer volume of customers in PV is so low (big/sprawling houses) that the quality of the infrastructure there is crappy - my parents are still there and have a Cable/Phone/Internet outage probably once a week.
Just north where we live, I think we are right in the middle of everything because even during that huge AZ/CO outage a few days ago - PV was blacked out and we had no impact.
I think we are in the bermuda triangle of broadband in Phoenix.
I don't question it, I just appreciate it and thank whichever god is in charge of these sorts of things.
