NH Broadband is now placing its unique pole boxes along Moultonboro Neck Rd. where I live (I moved off Long Island, NH not NY, 5 years ago).
It's great to be able to have options and competition for broadband and streaming. We had Spectrum, now Fidium, and signed up for NH Broadband. Still comparing Spectrum and Fidium for speedtests on my older equipment in the house ... cameras, fixed and wireless, laptops etc. Were waiting for NH Broadband to notify us for installation.
Have a phone land line as well, Consolidated Communications, but do not use. They now use fiber trunk lines, as well, instead of the 2 wire twisted pairs, of the past.
The wiring for all goes, and wil go, along the same path, inside and outside of the house, iincluding the last 75ft. underground from a pole to under the driveway to the side of the house. Inside the house the lines run, and will run, side by side to where the modem/router or ONT are located from the basement to the living room.
We still use Spectrum TV125 for "TV" without any of the Spectrum boxes, nor internet; stream it on Roku. Only billed for the "TV" stream. Spectrum is peddling XUMO boxes for streaming.
Fidium and NH Broadband don't have their own"TV"; e.g., Fidium suggests YouTube TV, FuboTV, Philo, DirectTV (not satellite but streaming DirectTV). We can stream any of these or other available streams, as well.
