Still waiting for the necessary permission to be gotten in order to get the amp installed on the roof of the block, as usual Cyprus grinds to a complete halt in the summer months and nothing is happening.

It's a perpetual game of "gyro gyro voleis" with nobody wanting to be the one to make the actual decision - classic "passing the buck" - making it so damn complicated for no real reason.

I'll give it till the end of the month and then reluctantly just install a Cytanet connection which will be connected fairly quickly as the line already exists in the apartment.

...

Since you mention this how is it done?
I  mean from where do they get power for their equipment.
It is on common utilities for the block and all residents pay it even if they don't have Cablenet. Or Cablenet has its own EAC meter and they pay the bill.

I'm guessing it will come out of common expenses, hence the series of hoops I'm having to jump through, fine if there is a company running the block, pretty difficult when we're looking at a scenario where nobody is responsible and nobody wants to make a decision. Gonna try again with the company responsible for collecting the common expenses on Monday - once they get back from the obligatory August shutdown.

As I'm on the top floor, I have no objection to them installing the amp direct to my place - were it to speed up the process then screw anybody else in the block as they are not interested.

We finally have a Cablenet tech coming out tomorrow morning to check things out, looks like it'll be a direct connection coming straight into the apartment rather than a roodtop install. Apparently, to put it into our block would likely require the signature of every Tom, Dick, Andreas, Androulla and their dog in the block just to get it done.

This is becoming far more complicated than it really needs to be and has taken way too long. Fingers crossed they either do the install tomorrow or at least get their fingers out. Were it not for the office internet connection we would have all gone crazy by now.

To put it quite simply, if you live in an apartment block that does not already have Cablenet, forget it. It is so damn complicated and so many permissions needed that it is not worth the hassle.

We thought we had a solution bringing it direct to the apartment, turns out we still need a gazillion signatures.

As there are a number of apartment blocks in our street and none of them seem to be hooked up to Cablenet's wire, I'm guessing this is down to the amount of red tape that needs to be cut through in order to get a building connected.

Cablenet's loss will be either Cyta or Primetel's gain.
