Because of how KPN arranges the connection here, in my case. Emphasizing in the information on the one hand that everything is done in consultation and in the meter cupboard, where KPN also has copper running, and on the other hand weird blackmail that if I don’t participate, all my upstairs neighbors won’t be able to either.
Then, in the next step, it suddenly becomes clear that they are going to place that cable straight through the outer wall in the middle of the living room, without any consultation, purely because it was easier for them – as far as they are concerned, no alternative is possible. If they have to, they just sort it out with that fiber, fiber-rich diet seems to be good for bowel movements
Ziggo does come in neatly at the central point for Ethernet and TV cables, namely in the meter cupboard, and provides me with services that I am perfectly satisfied with. The price is also fine to my taste, TV services are well arranged, upload can indeed be faster, yes, but I don’t really run into problems in real life. So yes, here’s someone who is completely soured on fiberglass, and stays with Ziggo
