I live on a rural road but found out in Sept 2022 fiber internet was plumbed to a network box two houses away from me. I asked a technician working if I could get fiber at home from it, he said he'd put in the request.

I've called the company every month since begging them to install it. Today I got a call from a special projects guy there responding to a Sept request and I could likely get fiber this week, 10x the speed at 1/2 the cost I currently pay.

Navigating company org charts is hard.

@mathowie Back before Verizon sold their fiber business to Frontier they were putting fiber on my block. Couldn't convince my landlord to let Verizon wire up the whole apartment building (4 units), and Frontier no longer does new installs. So now I get to look at a fiber line eye level from my office and know I can't tap into it.
