How long does it take for a cable guy to hook cable and internet up?

Question

Just wondering if anyone knew. I've been waiting for him since they give you like a 3 hr time slot for when they will be here.

Answer 1

Well,,,,It depends on where they have to run all the wiring too..

When they come to my house the ran the wire in the basement up..so it was simple...took about 1 hr...

We have 2 cable boxs and 2 internet hook ups....

Answer 2

It takes about a half an hour, they hook up a modem for both than your set.  I've just been through it.

Answer 3

Well when I moved in with some friends, I was upstairs and they had internet and cable installed in the same day. Even then, it only took him like two hours. It just depends on what he has to do too, because usually they have to drill a hole in the floor or wall to run the cable through and they have to have a place to store everything; the box, modem,or whatever you get. But it really shouldn't take longer than two hours. :-) hope this helps.
