We’ve all had bad experiences with Comcast but hopefully no one’s coax network looks like this one in a Hanover, MD neighborhood. According to the Baltimore Sun, Comcast techs ran cables in such a way that they are simply laying on sidewalks and over a couple of driveways. Then there is the cable junction box cluster *uck shown in the picture above. And it was installed like that for over a year.

Eventually the company properly installed the cables but only after a call from the Baltimore Sun. I totally understand the frustration as Comcast finally installed a few Cable Cards only after I wrote a post about the company’s incompetence. It’s sad that it requires an influential media outlet to get something done with Comcast.
