How do I find out if FIOS is in our area?

I saw Verizon people digging up the street a few months back. But, I don't know if we have it here. IL's might want to get it...

Now DH and I are moving and I want to know if where we are going will have it. Someone at work said you can search online and put your address in.

I checked the website and got nowhere.

What area are you in? I thought I read somewhere that you are Kings Park/Smithtown border? If so, Kings Park definitely has FIOS so i'm sure you'll have where you are. You can call Verizon or look online I'm sure

Thank you!!

I couldn't get to the right area.

But, I'm there and I'm chatting with someone.

It looks like it is available in our area.

I'm just making sure. Chat Icon

I have no idea Chat Icon

Is there any way to find out?

I guess I'm rather clueless about this, huh?

Maybe DH would know? (I doubt it!)

Go outside your house and look up... Do you see any lines like power or telephone lines... If so look for a large long black whatever they call it every couple of houses attached to the power/phone line.. That's FIOS....

If I remember I'll take a pic of it tomorrow and post it here...

We don't have any power lines.

Everything must be below ground.

We live in a cul-de-sac neighborhood where they don't have power lines.

When we move, it is the same set-up.

What does that mean for us?

Re: How do I find out if FIOS is in our area?

There are a lot of areas where you will see the thick wires for fios...it doesnt always mean you can get both data and tv

I sell fios and even when we check an address, it only tells us what is currently available...it doesnt give us an estimate of when either data or video will be available...probably because they dont want to irritate people by giving them a date and having something get tied up and not being able to provide it. If you have any questions....I am happy to help Chat Icon

Ours are underground an Verizon has been digging all week. And while the whole town has had FIOS, we have not...I'm assuming that after this dig, we will have the option.

There's a great benefit to underground wires though - no blackouts in bad weather!
