It doesn't seem to be in the deployment zone - probably because all of Guerrero is undergrounded - but I'd be curious to see if this could be changed given that the current sonic fusion lines that they currently have (at least for the western side of the block) come in through the back instead, and aren't undergrounded. Granted, that depends on if that block of Chavez will be covered by the deployment.
Thanks for the insight, Kyle! I also live on the western side of that block. does your sister currently have Fusion? if so, do they get pretty good speeds there?
Yup, they get ~20mbps on single line fusion - I'd imagine they could easily go to ~40 if they were to upgrade to X2. It's nowhere near what fiber provides of course, but it's plenty for what they do.
The only real issue they run into is wireless strength issues due to the old build of their building + interference from other wireless networks, but I've helped them out with setting up a much better wireless access point in their home, which has made a big difference for them.
