I've been a Sonic.net customer for many years, but I'm impatiently waiting for Fusion service. I've heard Sonic is finally nearing a buildout here, so that's great news, but do we have any ETA for this service in the Glendale area?

Also is there a way to know if I'm behind a Remote Terminal? I also tried to check my distance to the local CO: 818-244, but no address is given for that site, so I don't know how far from CO I'm located.

If Fusion isn't going to hit this area soon I'm going to have to consider another ISP. Really don't want to do that, but speeds are a huge problem right now.

Thanks for that link to the CO address.

Hmmm. That puts me 1.9 miles from that CO on "squared" traffic routes the wiring is likely to take. Seems a bit far for my current DSL capable of 6.0mbps.

They have neighborhood remote terminals along the street all over the place that we typically get wired into for service. If I'm wired through one of those does it mean that Fusion wouldn't be available through that path?

Yes, correct - if you are behind an RT, Fusion will not be offered, sorry. For more on why not, see:

If you email support@sonic.net with your current AT&T DSL tel number, they can tell you if it's RT provisioned or CO.

Thanks so much. Checked with support and it seems I am behind a remote terminal... That sucks as I was looking forward to fusion service.
