My fiancé refuses to live anywhere without FiOS. It's been great anywhere we've been in the DMV. We use our own equipment. I think they've sent us equipment but he calls and says we're using our own - sometimes they send out a tech to fiddle with the ports of something so we can use our own and just return theirs. Someone will probably correct me on the specifics about the ports. This is not remotely in my home responsibilities. Lol
