Gigabit fiber 19th Ave

Fiber to the nearest pole. and Ubiquiti nanostations to the pole? @Dane?

Here we are — THREE years later — waiting for something to happen.

Regulatory issues are a battle you should be fighting. How many employees have gone to planning commission meetings to address this issue?

There are literally hundreds of homes in this corridor waiting to give you their money. Long time customers have made you successful, so it's about time you returned the favor and make this happen.

Tired of the excuses.

And here we are more than two years after my last post complaining of inaction for the previous three years. Unreal.

The people people who should be lobbying the city of San Francisco are YOU GUYS.

I guess coordinating a successful lobbying campaign for your customers is a difficult task while working on your sail boat.

I mean, I get your frustration but the idea of having to go up against the San Francisco bureaucracy and expect anything to happen quickly (and by "quickly" I mean in less than 10 years) seems optimistic in the extreme. The city's probably got more important things to worry about than the quality of your internet.

Whether those things are actually important or not is a matter of perspective but I suspect that right now the best attention you can expect from the City Hall on this matter is limited to "is your house part the shaded area on the 'has internet access' map of SF" hanging in some city planner's office.

I'd guess that Sonic itself is low on the totem pole of priorities. "Gee, this small-ish ISP wants us to devote resources to plumbing already internet-connected houses for THEIR fiber lines? Yeah we'll get right back to them on that."

You obviously have no f***s to give since this doesn't affect you, but I've had the same DSL service at my place for the last 23 years, AND Sonic is always spamming me with their promotional emails about how I can now get gig fiber — first month for free if I act now!

Ummm... have a nice day... I guess?

@flex-brannighan:

I guessed you missed a few posts on the forums about microtrenching in SF:

I hope this gives you something to look for sooner than later.
