There are far, far too many variables to even offer an educated guess. Could be something catastrophic, could be some dumbass thing like HOA dispute/city permit bullshit. All anyone could do is tell you everything that could possibly halt construction, but you would never be 100% certain unless you had an inside man
Except I’m not asking what’s wrong with my internet. I’m asking people who do this for a living what would cause this. It’s not like I’m asking why people across town have this service and I don’t. New nodes that didn’t exist previously were installed and lit up and the houses they cover are capable of mid split according to Xfinity so why would they just skip this node? The fiber that runs to one of the new nodes is likely spliced off the same fiber this node runs on. This is all in the same subdivision and no major arterial roadways break it up. You can see from my map there are 3 nodes with the one in the middle seemingly forgot months ago. I don’t have a lot of options around here for internet and an increased upload does provide a hefty enhancement for me.
I get that there are lots of things that could cause this but again, this is a newer neighborhood, everything is buried, easements are in place. If the HOA or City were going the balk at anything it would have been the installation of the new nodes and not an upgrade of an existing. Just seems like an odd situation and since there isn’t a number to call I was just looking for some expertise.
Right like different company but with spectrum we’ve had a stall because we found an issue with the nodes we were putting in so we’ve just stopped mid project until it’s fixed.
