I have been waiting 7 months for the job to be finished. The dept of Justice has been notified. Digital Connex ignored the request in the contract conditions to conduct a pre-construction walk; this to clarify any questions or issues relating to the project. The crew showed up several hours late and out of gas. They were unfamiliar with towing a trailer and ran over landscaping. They did not excavate the trench to the required depth (24") and tried to get away with putting the conduit at a depth of (4") The crew was entirely ignorant of all Internet company specifications. Foundation, antenna support pole, grounding requirement, coax installation, placement of antenna support mount, etc. They installed a antenna support mount grossly undersized and out of spec. The foundation for the pole was not to spec. The concrete was dry and they just dumped in a bucket of water. They did not make the transition into the house where they were told to and cut the electrical power and alarm system.
Description of Work: Digital Connex was a vendor for Internet company high speed Internet satellite. This was a "non typical" installation of which the scope was clearly defined and costs were determined. They were to install underground conduit to the location of the antenna support pole, and then run the coax from the home's interior location via the attic to the POE/conduit then to the satellite antenna mounted on the support pole. All of this was clearly defined to the contractor. They were also to optimize the equipment and install a wireless router for a interior wireless network.

The technician did a good job, but after living with the system for a few days I realized one aspect was off, and it needed some additional tuning. I emailed and called the company 4-5 times before I got a call back. They set up one appointment, and then another, where I sat home waiting for a tech who didn't call and never showed up. I scheduled a third appointment when I was assured the tech would arrive between 12 and 2, and would call as the morning went on to give me a more specific arrival time. At 2:15 the tech called to say he was "running late" and would call me at 5:00 to give me an update. I'm still waiting for him to show up. I sure will never use this company again, and can't recommend them to anyone. No matter how skilled their technicians may be, they can't seem to manage the customer service/ punctuality piece successfully.
Description of Work: On my own I purchased a new sound system for my TV; tuner, subwoofer and 5 speakers, and hooked everything up. Then I found the tuner was very sophisticated, and the manual was not helpful, so I called Digital Connex to come and program the tuner and components so that my TV, DVD, VCR would talk to each other and to my new sound system. The technician came out, tuned everything up, and I paid him. The service contract included a 90 day service warranty.
