This past week, Verizon announced intention to roll out DSL service

BPL is too cumbersome to compete with the combination of cable, dsl
and wireless broadband.  It will eventually prove non-viable.

Fasten your seatbelts...the next demand will be for expansion at 5 GHz,
to accomodate the rollout.

Has Verizon figured out how to extend the range limitation on DSL? I thought it used to be limited to X miles from a central office.
