AT&T Fiber question

They have been running fiber lines along the main highway in front of our subdivision for past few weeks. How long does it usually take for them to run the fiber into the neighborhood and get it up and running?

Do those lines go to your neighborhood?

If it is anywhere like where we live and another company provides high speed gigabit service... then basically never.
They prioritized places that did not have existing competitors, which is not surprising.
Honestly though really impossible to know, I would assume in the next 5 years?

About 5 years ago, ATT ran fiber down the main road in front of the subdivision I lived in. 6 months later, there were signs all over about fiber coming soon. They were done within the year. That's just my experience with it.

It could honestly be 5-10 years to run off a main trunk to a neighborhood.
Do you have cable internet or other internet already?
If not, probably quicker. If so, probably not a priority.

Got AT&T fiber about 5 years ago. They basically ran the cable right along side the main road of our Neighborhood. When i ordered it tech came out dug a same trench a few feet and dropped the line to my house. Have Loved it ever since

Contractors ran the inner duct, the orange conduit, in my neighborhood between about April 10th and about April 25th. I got a text and an email earlier today stating it was available. I have an install scheduled for Monday. Going from 75Mbps on copper to 500Mbps on fiber and bill is staying exactly the same.
I accidentally ordered the 5,000Mbps package at first because I screwed up placing the order on my phone. I had a surprisingly easy time getting it corrected to something a little more reasonable. The monthly bill for 5,000Mbps is $189 in case anyone was wondering lol.
