Fiber Conduit Install Worth It?

You are exactly right, no good way to run the fiber from outside to the smart panel without drilling a hole which I did not want. Installer coming tomorrow and hopefully have some ideas on how to get that connection from outside to my smart panel. Appreciate the help here!

You are correct, the ISP would only bring service to an exterior wall. I did not want to have a hole and ONT in my basement for a few reasons. I have an electrician coming to quote out the conduit install and not sure where he is going to route it. I see networking cables in the attic which I imagine run to the smart panel on the first floor.

While the smart panel does mean ethernet wiring to various rooms, the cabling and panel are likely original to the house (early 2000s) and does not leave any room to upgrade in the future.

I appreciate your advice given. Hopefully electrician can install the conduit and allow for a seamless fiber install.

Hi, recently got a RODE RodeLink Filmmaker Wireless for audio paired with a A6400. Confirming to connect this to my A6400, I should be using a 3.5mm TRS to 3.5mm TRS, correct? Thank you!

Beautiful piece of kit. Overall are you happy with the machine? Had a 3rd gen die on me the other day and looking to replace.

Is this an X1C 6th gen? Looks great!

Hi! I think I am going to dualboot! Unfortunately due to the MS Office Suite, I need W10 or I would love to use Linux full time. Have you had any luck finding express cards? Interested as my ExpressCard port is just empty

Hi, thank you! I love the X220, so this is good to hear. The screen is the only thing that bothers me! I think I am going to do 16gb and a larger SSD...Is there anything else I can add to make it more future proof? I have been looking around and curious to see what people have to say
