Re: [northeast] Fiber to House Line Replacement
Did they run the whole thing in conduit, from the pole (or box) to your house? Or just under the driveway? Also, when was your install relative to the nationwide start of the FiOS rollouts?

Yup the whole thing. From the pole outside on my street, under my driveway, and even mounted both ONTs in my basement. I should add however, they used the EXISTING copper conduit from the original construction of the house. Still a huge snaking job.
AND THEY DIDNT CHARGE ME A DIME! (Took 2 visits)

| Corning usually coats the fibre in a very very thin layer of kevlar, or a slightly thicker layer of PVC (sometimes both depending on the location of the lay), but that sucks if you hit it with a sharp object with a great force. It will usually keep the birds from chewing the wire aerially. |
