For migrations of existing loops over to the new interfaces, we have some work to do on the process and workflow, then we will offer that to existing members.
That is disappointing. I'm at 4,109ft and for the past 6 month was holding out for the "available soon" VDSL2 to boost my dl/ul speeds at the same price point. The Fusion X2 offer is not an option for me as there are many other options here (Astound, DSLextreme, AT&T) at a lower price point.
So if I were to guess then, VDSL2 for existing customers is another 6+ month of "soon" away and customers who are grandfathered in with their own DSL modem (vs. rental modem) will also be required to switch to the Sonic VDSL2 rental modem instead of continuing to BYOD (VDSL2) modem at time of migration. Is that a fair assessment, Dane?
