It went very well. The technician was very helpful and went above and beyond my expectations on setting up my equipment. He worked with my schedule and even tried to help us with our slow internet service. Several great ideas that weren't yet available to us yet.

I like this guy because he works really hard. He is really good. I pay a contract price for a year which is $190. Four times a year he comes out and fixes things. He has done a lot of work on that thing. He tries to make the equipment work. He earns every penny and does it without attitude.
