had all kinds of fun with FIOS, dumped it after 3 weeks, would have been
sooner but they cut both the phone and cable lines multiple times after they
finished up the fiber install so i had to get those fixed first.

thing would dump connection every 40 minutes like clockwork, if i wanted it
with no dumps i could pay then $250 for a business line, they do it to stop
people form running servers on their 20/20 lines
