CO-MO FACES CONSTRUCTION DELAY,
FIBER INTERNET STILL HEADED TO TAN-TAR-A ESTATES

Co-Mo Connect was originally scheduled to complete fiber line construction for Tan-Tar-A Estates in Fall 2024. However, the completion of fiber line construction on the Tan-Tar-A Estates project has been delayed due to an unforeseen Rural Utility Service (RUS) procedure.

Unfortunately, Co-Mo Connect must receive approval of this RUS requirement to proceed with the project. This RUS procedure and the timing of its approval is completely out of Co-Mo Connect’s control.

Despite the delay caused by the RUS procedure, Co-Mo Connect remains committed to bringing its award-winning, ultra-fast fiber Internet to the residents of Tan-Tar-A Estates and will push to get these procedures completed as soon as possible.

In the event we secure RUS approval, we want to prepare residents that we may encounter difficulties related to winter weather and other contributing factors that might delay the completion of this project to Spring 2025.

NOTE: We do not take pre-orders. Please DO NOT try to place an order at www.CoMoConnect.com at this time. Wait until we announce that construction is complete and service is available via our communications channels.

    FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS


    What happened to Lake Cable?
    After many wonderful discussions with the owners of Lake Cable, Gerald, and Nelda Buhrow, Co-Mo Connect has recently agreed to purchase Lake Cable. As a result of this purchase, Co-Mo Connect will be constructing a fiber-optic network and bringing its gigabit Ultra-Fast Internet to Tan-Tar-A Estates in 2024.

    What is changing?
    First and foremost, nothing is changing right now. You are still a Lake Cable subscriber, and all your services will remain exactly as they are currently offered to you by Lake Cable. If you need to contact them about billing, technical support, or anything else, please continue to contact them as you usually would. While we have purchased Lake Cable, they will graciously continue to run the day-to-day operations as we continue through this transition process.

    If you need to contact Lake Cable for customer or technical support, please continue to call 573-348-2511.

    When will Co-Mo Connect fiber optic line construction begin? When will Co-Mo Connect services be available?
    We are currently in the preliminary stages of surveying/engineering within Tan-Tar-A Estates. You may see our trucks and employees around the Estates. However, you may not notice physical construction until later this Spring. Co-Mo Connect plans on completing all construction by the Fall of 2024, and services should be available to residents within Tan-Tar-A Estates at that time.

    Will I have to sign up for Co-Mo Connect Internet service? Will there be an interruption of service?
    Yes, when construction is complete and service is active, you will have to sign up for Co-Mo Connect’s Ultra-Fast Internet service. We do not accept pre-sign-ups. And no, currently, we do not anticipate an interruption of service between the transition of Lake Cable services to you signing up and receiving Co-Mo Connect’s Ultra-Fast Fiber Internet service.

    What fiber-optic construction method will be used in Tan-Tar-A Estates?
    Co-Mo Connect will use a micro-trenching technique to construct a fiber-line infrastructure for Tan-Tar-A Estates. Micro-trenching refers to the practice of cutting thin channels into roadways and/or other rights-of-way to lay fiber. Once the cable is installed, the channels are backfilled with matching filler material. We chose this method because it is less disruptive to residents and the neighborhood.
