How can I get Fiber optic service to my home?

Question

I live in the 48150 area code, livonia michigan.

Answer 1

Verizon is probably the FIOS provider in your area.

Enter your phone number or address on the Verizon web page and it will tell you if service is in your area and how to contact them.  Or, fill in the request form and they will advise you when service will be in your area.

Answer 2

You'll probably have to wait until your telephone company upgrades your neighborhood.

Answer 3

Are you in a new home?  A lot of new neighborhoods are running fiber to the home.  In addition, Corning Cable Systems has just come out with a new fiber optic drop cable called Clear Curve that can be used in multi-home dwellings.

Regardless, I think contacting your cable would be a good step.   Around here, we've noticed Time Warner cable installing fiber optic cables everywhere to handle the new HD demand.

Good luck!  I work in fiber optics cable manufacturing so it is always exciting to hear people are looking for it!
