So I recently closed on a new home finished just before christmas. I've got a FIOS install on the 19th but as I look over the property I absolutely cant at all find the road side junctions (or whatever you'd call it) that seem to be necessary to actually run fiber to my home. My home builders just left a coax and phone wire bundle hanging out of my siding (hole near where the basement is but through the siding and siliconed in place) where the utility hookups are and told me thats for FIOS. So it seems they kinda screwed me into an outdoor ONT which means no Ethernet to the ONT so I'm stuck with a Verizon router. Unless the techs can cleanly drill through my foundation to the basement? Not sure if thats too risky. I dont see the existing wires in my basement unless its behind some insulation. I couldn't reach.
Back to the lack of street access. This IS a brand new street. We're the first 5 houses up on it. It extends further back for planned expansion but all I see is a cap for my sewer line and a small green high voltage box nowhere near my house's utilities hookup. Is it possible that Verizon actually has NOT dropped the fiber up that street yet and is there any chance that I'll end up getting billed for having to do work like that outside what the free install covers? Not to mention the fact that our yard are a nest of buried gas and electric. If that green box is also the FIOS hub then I'm even more worried that they;ll want to tear up a brand new driveway unless theyre willing to dig around the back of my house. Sorry to ramble but this whole thing has me nervous. I'll probably call someone tomorrow but if anyone has had a similar experince with a new contruction install I'd love to hear it.
