Person called today representing Telekom and asked if they can erect a pole in the street outside our property to enable optical internet service. Anyone had this????

Are you sure they did not mean Fiber Optic Internet? They went through my village recently and installed Fiber Optic Internet but as far as I know no one around my road has been connected to it. We already have a Internet provider here and at first I thought they were the ones installing the equipment but it was Telekom instead of KaposNet,

Not sure as they did not speak English. They mentioned optic internet so maybe it is ?

It's going to be a fibre optic cable for high speed internet. What baffles me is why they would ask if they can erect the pole - unless the land on which they want to put the pole is your land - in which case take advice before you sign anything.

To my Knowledge Peter the land is not mine, it's in the drainage ditch, the same as everyone else. The Council in our village have, in the past removed trees, cleared the ditches and installed a new path and drainage from the houses.

Definitely fibre optic Internet being installed. Had that in UK ... so much better.
