i'm cleaning out the area where we are going to build a new server room.
Oh fun stuff, Taking some time away from the everyday routine isn't always a bad thing.
Cleaning Sucks though.its a rather dusty part of our shop floor. Most of the junk in there is going to get tossed by the end of the week if no one claims it.

OMG, just had a long confusing conversation with a site about "where is our router." Apparently the AT&T tech was there trying to hook up service and install their router. Except, they didn't bring a router and no one shipped us one that we know of.
Hours of follow up later... router was shipped long ago, to a different company. Oops.

I don't order AT&T routers with fiber service. I specifically decline them.

@scottalanmiller That sounds like AT&T to me. I'm currently sitting on (not literally) 3 or 4 routers that belongs to AT&T, but they have never sent correspondence asking for them back. We would kindly give them back if they would just give us some information.

I didn't want to, but there was no cost savings to skipping it.

No but you would have probably had more control over what's going on in your network.

Hey guys, long time, no see.

Our router will stay behind it.

Actually - there is cost - it's cost in complexity.

To an extent, yes. But there is a benefit, too. They only support you fully if you deploy the router.

What is there to support? AT&T fiber is Ethernet hand-off. You plug in your router, set the static IP and done. In the extreme rare case that something has to be "proved", you grab a laptop plug it in and set the IP.
And, there absolutely IS a cost difference. Because you don't see it, means you did not order real business service.

We got it priced both ways in our case, and there was a different fee added on to offset removing the router.
