Shawnee Ridge, you're on deck, followed by Hawks Nest and Harrison Meadows
9:23AM July 29, 2019
It’s hard to believe July is almost over. We’ve been busy over the past couple of
months completing aerial construction, placing conduit in your neighborhood and
pulling fiber. We know it’s easy to get
excited with all the construction activity that has been happening to get fiber
in your area, but we still have some work to do. Over the next month, we’ll be working to
finish mainline construction to your neighborhood and completing the necessary network
components. We’re excited to announce
that we are ready to start taking orders in all three neighborhoods.
We hope to be ready to start pre-installation visits in
Shawnee Ridge mid-August, but please keep in mind that there are many moving
parts happening at once during construction and delays can occur. We appreciate
your continued patience as we work to bring better internet to your
neighborhood. From Shawnee Ridge we’ll
move into Hawks Nest and Harrison Meadows.
The scheduling, final construction and installation process
is significantly more efficient if members have their orders placed prior to
drop contractors starting in a zone.
Once we are completed with initial drop installations in a zone, there
may be a longer wait for connection if we have started working another
zone.
Here’s what you need to do:
1. If
you haven’t already, register at join.wintek.com. Please make sure the person registering is
the Tipmont electric account holder, as this will allow your order to flow
seamlessly through our system. If you have already registered at
join.wintek.com, you may login to your dashboard using the email address and
password you created when registering.
Only one registration per household is needed. Duplicate registrations only slow us down.
2. Once
registered or logged in, you’ll be asked to place your order and answer a brief
questionnaire. Not sure what speed you
need? Don’t worry, you’ll have an
opportunity to speak to a member service representative prior to service
installation.
3. Once
we are ready to start the installation process which involves bringing the
fiber from the road to your home, we’ll contact you to schedule a site
visit.
We’ll be posting additional
updates that include timelines at join.wintek.com and Facebook starting
mid-August. For more detailed
information on the fiber construction/installation process, be sure to check
out our update “What to expect when getting fiber internet to your home” posted
on June 27 at https://join.wintek.com/front_end/updates. We’ll also be hosting some neighborhood
meetings to answer questions and show you how to maximize the benefits of your
fiber internet service – so be sure to watch your email for your invitation.
