Re: Windstream/Kinetic OSP assistance/clie sought
Other people on their street do have Kinetic, and I believe Windstream laid cable from the street to their house, but they are being told there are no facilities to connect them to an OLT or some other type of termination device.

So it may be dictated by HoA until it reach to certain level when that binding deal is expired.

Some of my family recently moved to an area of North Carolina where high-speed residential Internet connectivity options seem to be very limited. Outside of the options below, the only thing they're able to get is satellite Internet service, and the performance has been very poor
They moved into an area where the neighbors have Kinetic (Windstream's Internet service) but my relatives have been told that there are no facilities available for them. This is new construction, so perhaps it's possible that their address hasn't been added into whatever systems Windstream/Kinetic use for service pre-qualification?
Is there anyone I can talk to at Winstream to find out if it is indeed possible to get service at their address, or if there is way I can get past the gatekeepers?
Any guidance from someone in the know at Windstream would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

Use broadbandmap.fcc.gov to confirm availability or not. If Kinetic says it's available there and you can't sign up, challenge the location. On Sun, Apr 23, 2023 at 12:04 AM Justin Streiner <streinerj@gmail.com> wrote:
