@rasterweb@mastodon.socialI did a search for something, found no definitive answer, so I wrote up a blog post that has the definitive answer (well, it worked for me) so that in the future others do not need to suffer as I have suffered...

Update. @juddlegum and his colleagues at _Popular Information_ spotlight 10 #corporations that kept their promise not to give money to politicians who voted to overturn the 2020 election — and a few (like #Amazon and #ATT) that didn't.

GoNetSpeed seems to be very happy to take your order, during the honeymoon phase of a new town (Easthampton MA), but once that is over and reality sits in, they appear to be no better than the cable company.
This order was place 2024, and they keep pushing it back by 3–4 months. Supposedly, my new service date will be sometime March 2025.

Wanting to get a more clear answer from Go Net Speed (spelled as one word, GoNetSpeed), I made enough of a fuss that they said they would get a hold of their planning department, and call me back, which to my surprise, by the end of the day they did.
GoNetSpeed claimed the similar nonsense a competing cable company would claim, when they don't plan or want to service an address. For example, if you lived in a Comcast area and tried to order Charter, they would have told you that there was some law or legal reason why they could not go there. It is an easy excuse that they used on the ignorant to make them go away.
By comparison, today, GoNetSpeed claims Verizon has pulled the permits for a single telephone pole, after two days (they put up the line Monday, up my whole street, and pulled it down from 1 pole on Wednesday). Interesting enough, the telephone pole in question, would not even affect servicing me, since the line continues to go all the way past my house, past my driveway, and ends at the pole next to my driveway. That would make it a problem for my neighbor, certainly, but not me.
I pointed this fact out, and they continued to claim it is an issue with Verizon. I do not even think Verizon owns the pole in our town. In fact, I know Verizon, on the east coast, much like ATT on the west coast, would love nothing more than to end their landlines here in favor of wireless.

Hackers Mined AT&T Breach for Data on #Trump's Family, Kamala #Harris

@0xF21D@infosec.exchangeIf you're using passthrough mode with AT&T Gigafiber and want to host IPv6 services through your own router, you need to allow IPv6 through the AT&T provided router.
Unfortunately, AT&T's packet filter ruleset is crap, and this is the only set of rules that worked for me.
For the firewall on my personal router, I set the rules granular to specify only what I"m going to allow through. Nothing else is connected to the AT&T Router.

Off topic, but the tower you see in that image is the abandoned AT&T Microwave Tower on Topanga Ridge. Looks like they have set up equipment around the base, probably for the fire.
