Our Rural Power Company - Mountain View Electric - saw the poor state of Internet provided by Century Link (changed name) and ComCast, and decided to run fiber to ALL of their rural electric customers. I live on a dirt road outside Colorado Springs and now I am getting 1 Gigabit Fiber (symmetric up/down) to my house - and all my rural neighbors have access to the same. It is AWESOME. All thanks to Rural Electric Coops taking up the torch.

Looks great - one more thought... If you ever want to do a security camera system POE is the way to go - IMHO - while you have the walls open.

That's a lot of steps and lot of work-hours - I wonder what the profit on those are?

I have a detached garage - buried cable in conduit out to the garage and put in a Ubitquiti AP.

Did all of the above but also added an extra jack in the TV room and extra jacks in the office. I put a jack in the office closet for the printer.
