We have the same issue here in suburban Atlanta but with Comcast. The
Comcast ped in my front yard has no cover... it's exposed to the elements.
There's a bright orange cable running from there to my neighbor's house,
it's been there for at least 3 years. At the least, it doesn't touch my

My neighborhood is currently serviced by coax only. A contractor for Frontier is
digging,
It may. We don't use it. Too many freeze/thaw
cycles each winter around here. It would get destroyed in a few years.

of doing this down fairly significantly.

It seems inevitable that once a last mile residential broadband operator

nobody really cares to take ownership of specific
