Cable Forum - View Single Post - if my speed goes much slower it will stop

I may as well show people how mine looks outside, just for giggles.

Bear in mind that where the cable comes up from the ground and immediately into that brown VM box. Well, that brown VM box is mine and the cable runs through my wall there. BUT - they didn't use that cable outlet from the ground. They took the cable up outsode next door, into one of those brown boxes where it is split into 4, across the front of the building, down past my window, into that brown box, and then through my wall to my living room!

Those cables you see coming up from the ground actually split off and go around the other side of the building and service 3 flats.

The split in my cable also goes off around the right side of the building and feeds 2 flats there. Notice the electrical tape to fend off the elements. Not a brown protective box to be seen anywhere. Oh and how they couldn't be bothered to properly cap the hole and so water can just run down into the ground cable piping.
