I’m also in Raleigh. I remember

Aug 2015: Free T-shirt

May 2017: ATT dug up my yard (Everyone was hopping it was google)

Nov 2017: ATT fiber Installed (At least it’s not spectrum cable anymore)

Dec 2021: Google Fiber dug up my yard.

May 2022: Google Fiber installed.

It’s a shame they re-trenched everything 4 years after ATT did.

Dug up your yard??? I am getting fiber in 2 months and they are going under my garden by injecting it with high pressure so that it "lands" in my service hatch under my house. Appointment after that someone will enter my house and connect it...

To clarify, do you mean that they just shove the fiber down an underground electrical conduit hard enough for it to make it to your house?

[ivolimmen]

Yes. We have special equipment for this. Under high pressure they shoot the cable through the ground so my garden remains untouched.
