We have CenturyLink with FTTH (Fiber To The Home). The market this with
wireless cable inside the home using wireless TV boxes that radiate RFI
noise from AM band on up to 400Mhz. Tried ferrites on all the cables and
wall wart SPS with no success.
Had them come back and remove their RFI radiating equipment and had Cat5e
cables installed. No RFI now. Great internet speeds, great TV channels,
telephone is OK, but the small battery back up for it only lasts a few hours
when power goes out compared to the old telephone system with days of
back-up power at the CO.

Subject: [RFI] FIOS vs DSL
I'm thinking of switching from Verizon DSL to Comcast FIOS for faster and
more reliable internet.
I'm hoping that the FIOS will be cleaner in terms of RFI. What possible
sources of RFI are there from FIOS? Do they use signal boosters that
put out RFI? I'm guessing the router will be the biggest source and
that chokes on that will alleviate most of it.
I'm in Philadelphia, PA and we already have FIOS lines on our street - so
perhaps they already have the signal boosters installed.
Aaron
