I was in Dogtown a year ago, but Sonic was just reselling AT&T to our address :(
Still very worthwhile to not have to talk to a Telco, but I had to rent + use AT&Ts garbage router because it did some proprietary negotiation step (With the ONT? There was a blog post where someone reverse engineered what was happening).
Now I'm in a smaller city and Sonic claims they have plans for us some day. For the time being, it's the Comcast nightmare.
Edit: and AT&T fiber was asymmetrical. Disappoint.
I'm in the same boat. I work there and can only get the resold AT&T service because my neighborhood was built pre-wired for only Comcast and AT&T, making it hard to service.
Still, like you noted, not having to deal with AT&T is a great selling point to a lot of people, and we're known for good support, so I'd like to think we're providing as good a service as those people can get until we build out our network in their area.
We have aggressive plans for the future, so I hope we're in your area sooner than later. :)
Same. About six months ago I started see Sonic trucks all over the neighborhood, five or six at a time covering multiple blocks. I asked if they were installing Fiber and was told no. Not much later, a sales rep knocked on my door. I said yes to the service before he could even greet me. It's been great.
