I live a few miles from the middle of nowhere, Missouri with no internet options except for satellite. Saw some CenturyLink techs doing something at the end of my driveway. When I came back from work, I saw a shiny new DSLAM! It's an Adtran Total Access 1148V VDSL2 OSP DSLAM -- 48 possible ports of chewy, possibly VDSL2, goodness!
I know there are many, many variables in play, but say that you were CenturyLink and you installed one of these. How long might it be until the DSL is activated?
Hope my line, which runs about half a mile back to our house and was buried a couple of decades ago, will work so I can dump Hughesnet.
Other than putting my info in the "Let me know when DSL is available" tool on CL's website, is there anything else I should do to ensure I know when it spins up? Keep a box of donuts in the car and make friends by passing them out if I see a CenturyLink tech?
