Trying to get a home network set up, I called Alabama Interconnect. They said they could come out and give me an estimate, but repeatedly kept bringing up how expensive and troublesome the installation would be. It's like a home network was beneath them and they didn't want to bother with it. I gave up and did the network myself. It wasn't as hard as they made it out to be, and much cheaper than their sight-unseen-quote of $1500.00 or more.
