Knock on wood, our only problem has been other contractors and only once. Frontier had a job in the same area as one of our handholes. The contractor pulled our slack loops out, realized it wasn't Frontier's fiber, put it back badly, then dropped the lid on the glass, messing up one of the tubes

Most of the MVNOs aren't permitted to use the underlying provider's name in any sort of marketing/branding way. If you ask they can tell you, but they can't say "we're reselling Verizon service". I agree their marketing dept seems a bit cutesy if not over the top at times. But I am very impres

Truth be told, I’ve never actually done ADSS. I’ve been told by a couple of different people that it wasn’t worth the trouble. They cited it being more expensive and more difficult to work with. We can do strand and lash pretty fast. At the end of the day I guess it doesn’t matter. By th
