AT&T is finally dropping off fiber nodes here in my area. They came by the house last night, but my wife who doesn't know anything about this stuff sent them off their merry way. To her AT&T = phones, and we already have good cell phone service.

I like their prices, they actually charge less for a faster connection than TWC charges for the cable connection.

Have you had any experiences dealing with AT&T or their fiber-optic connections?

I don't know very much about the technology behind fios. Does it work very differently from cable, in terms of the user's end of it? Would I still be able to use my existing Linksys (argh) router to share the connection between my comps?

Any opinions or insights welcomed.
