    $26k? Could you buy a cheap shed and put it right on your side of the boundary line next to the neighbor? Have Spectrum terminate the cable line there. Put a cheap 200w solar panel and small battery in the shed and with enough battery capacity to keep it running through the overnight hours and then set up your own CANTENNA Wifi pointing at your house?

    How close would this theoretical shed be from the end of the line?

        Spectrum may not let you run your own wire for termination, so if the only option is to pay $26k to Spectrum I’d buy a $1k shed and power solution first to get Spectrum to terminate it on my property.
