The Developer/Builders should allow Brighthouse to be part of their wiring package when the new homes go in just like the other Utilities have the privilege of wiring in the same ditch with the others... it would save Brighthouse from making their own small trench..

As they say " What say you?"
I agree, but that is not the situation. However, a post above seems to indicate that laying the cable is not invasive at all. I'm a little sensitive to that because years ago when we built our house the sprinkler system people and the cable people kept hitting each other, so I eventually had the sprinkler guy bury the cable for me.

Anyway, Brighthouse is an interesting option. CenturyLink with Cat-5 is as well. I am having Tom from TheVillagesAV come out in a couple of weeks to try to clear some of this up for me. I know he prefers Comcast but I think he will give me the facts either way. The good news is Comcast has competition in The Villages, which helps when you make the annual call to get your rate back down.
