I am so frustrated with this DSL.. It is really slow especially
when I am trying to watch a movie on Netflix. It buffers every two
minutes. I have the fastest speed according to Verizon.
It's not fast at all.
I would like to know why FIOS is not available in my area.
If it is coming to my area, I would like to know when. I really
hate switching back to cable internet, if FIOS is coming soon.

About your DSL Connection:
If you want to trouble shoot it, in http://forums.verizon.com/t5/High-Speed-Internet-DSL-and-Dial/bd-p/High_Speed_Internet start a new thread.
In the new thread, about your DSL connection:
#1 Visit http://www.giganews.com/line_info.html and post up the Traceroute the page shows, if you wish. Be aware that the final hop (bottom-most line of the trace) will contain a hop with your IP address in it. Remove that line. What I'm looking for is a line that mentions "ERX" in it's name towards the end. If for some reason the trace does not complete (two lines full of Stars), keep the trace route intact.
#2 Can you provide the Transceiver Statistics from your modem?
If you don't know how to get that info:
a) What is the brand and model of your modem?
b) What is the brand and model of your router?
