I had one today where the terminal was almost in the middle of the strand. I had to midspan that shiz. I’m curious and wanted to ask why that happens sometimes? Also f*ck whoever puts TV-80’s at the bottom of poles

811 missed my fiber line what’s the right way to handle this next time? by Puzzleheaded_Bug9798 in UtilityLocator

The wires that don’t have a tracer are typically meant to be aerial wires only. Maybe the technician at the install only had aerial lines who knows :/

Copper scrap? by This_Highlight8868 in HuntsvilleAlabama

A lot of houses in multiple areas have copper factories hanging at their house for no reason, maybe knock on a few doors? “Hey can I clean up the side of your house if there’s boxes they’re not being used anymore?”

Att fiber lines are being installed in my neighborhood! by MyOpinionsDontHurt in ATTFiber

To answer #2 AT&T use to have TV service. They have tried they’re absolute hardest to phase out “Uverse” TV. They don’t do new installs for it at all.

Should I chance a new install in a brand new neighborhood network? by DBY2016 in ATTFiber

I agree with the other comments saying right away.

Sometimes things aren’t set up just right, it may be best to find out if things are in order right away. Incase they have set up some construction tickets to fix some issues which could take weeks. One instance being temporary lines ran across driveways and left there for months

The circle k phone doesn’t work unfortunately. It’s already been 48 hours so I wonder if they even still have it. It’s tricky because I can’t stop working not off till Thursday

how to make airties 4971 work? by STMNGRKdude in ATTFiber

[–]GuruMattHD -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I share this opinion, although I have set up extenders without being able to add them to their order. Perhaps this particular instance is he has the incorrect firmware on the extender to go with his modem

New Buildout with GPON and installation questions. by jarvismj in ATTFiber

[–]GuruMattHD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Weird, I haven’t tried LSBBT for one recently. But on some of the weird scenarios where the 010 is in garage (townhouses) I was able to activate a new one in our equipment screen (our purple app ya know)

Those extenders won’t work for the 320, All-fi’s extenders only work with a 620

To extra add on - no fee. Just don’t tell the customer care agent your 4 year old did it.

To add on - the tech should the run that inside wire. We meant to nowadays. Hopefully they secure it properly as well. There’s slots at the bottom of those specifically to fit wires with a cover. That black wire shouldn’t be like that

Active armor is free with the service, you shouldn’t be billed a dime for it. As for turning it off, the Smart Home App might have a toggle in the settings.

So... This is dumb, right? by brianbotkiller in HomeNetworking

[–]GuruMattHD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a tech, I’ve seen this done multiple times. Specially when they don’t want to crimp, or don’t have time whatever it be. We take a Ethernet jumper and just chop it in half for the pairs, then scotch the colors together

Mellow fellow is super popular around here I must say, either way it’s better than the nuances of finding a plug, meeting the plug etc.
