century link
 

We are new to Virginia Trace. A century link rep. told me today that the service is fiber optic. I do not believe them . Does anyone know if this is true or is it DSL?

I believe they only provide fiber to the home.

Fiber Optic

they are fiber optic, but you have to get TV via Direct TV--they no longer support Prism--fired they after 6 years-we're with Xfinity because of no prism & we don't want a dish

We have CenturyLink fiber optic and combine it with YouTube TV. This is not the YouTube of cute cat videos, but broadcast TV over the internet:

I've had Directv since 2008 and brought my boxes with me when I moved here in 2011. Of course since then I've upgraded to a better box, a DVR with a 1000 hrs of HD storage. I've had Century Link phone and internet since July 2011. I have fiber optic in Tamarind Grove, that is off St. Charles.

We have no modem. There are two phone jacks in the kitchen, one for telephone and one for the computer. We plug our router into the jack and leave it at the end of the bar, it's a bar with a tier, so it's hidden somewhat.

We've only had one outage in seven years and they fixed it the same day, actually within 2 hours. They told it was a lightning strike near the garage that had knocked it out. So it was an act of nature. I'm happy with the service and I love Directv, this year they gave me NFL Sunday Ticket for free, that's second year in a row I've gotten it free. I think the max internet speed for my area is 25. They have many pricing plans, go to their office in front of Target next to Jim's Golf Shop & Jersey Mike's.

PS, I don't think I would get my Directv through CL, they tried to combine my bill once and it never happened, not worth saving $5. If you want Directv, call directv and set it up yourself. Directv does not care who does your internet or phone.
