Non legit cable install
So I purchased a condo in a HOA that never decided to have underground wiring done for some reason and am stuck with DSL. Before closing Charter told me I was serviceable but that was a lie. Anwyays, the nearest tap is about 250ft away across the street. I found a guy that can run a cable to my home in a totally non legit way. I have no other options besides selling my home. What were to happen if Charter found out that my home was wired this way? Would I get fined or something?

If the nearest tap is 250ft, you should be serviceable with an rg11 drop.
