The CENTURY VILLAGE MESSINGER CLUB MEETING SUNDAY JULY 27, 2014
IN A NUTSHELL
A HIT
The meeting room was packed to the brim.
The club recommended that every association should OPT- OUT of David’s (UCO) “Baby” an outlandish, overbearing, super costly, time wasting WI-FI plan.
The club recommended each association to decide if they wanted WI-FI or not and if they do want ir, they should deal with their own vender directly
Kevin Revallo Comcast’s Wi-Fi technical expert explained the following.
1) Comcast’s business class router is not the same as the one shown on David’s blog and reviewed by the Wi-Fi committee, IT IS MANY TIMES MORE POWERFUL
2) Contrary to rumors from UCO, Comcast only brings a signal device to a location and could not be a bidder on David’s plan to WI-FI the whole of Century Village
3) Comcast will install its New Business Class modem in a common areas of the associations building and service it.
4) Comcast will sell and install its wireless extenders for ($75.00 each) wherever the association wants them. (Available Soon). However an association can buy wireless extenders wherever they want.
5) Kevin expressed his concern that this is such a good deal for the associations that Comcast Residential division will lose a great deal of business because of its tremendous cost saving feature. (DO YOU CARE?)
Comcast’s Account representative Fred King and Ed Grossman explained the minimum cost of this service is:
a) A onetime installation fee of either $90.00 or $45.00 depending If the association signs a two or three year contract.
b) A onetime cost of $75.00 per installed wireless extender with a minimum of two for a total $150.00
c) A fixed monthly service charge with the modem of $120 for either the two or three year contract
To sum it up A total approximate onetime cost of $240.00 and a monthly charge of $120.00
At this time each Association will have its own password.
Each Association will have an open line which guests can use. (YOU DO NOT HAVE TO GIVE YOUR GUESTS YOUR ASSOCIATIONS PASSWORD)
ED GROSSMAN INFORMED THAT THOSE WHO ARE INTERESTED IN USING THIS SERVICE WOULD BE REFUNDED THEIR FIRST MONTH BILLING BY PUTTING
THEIR CONTRACT THRU THE MESSINGER CLUB. THAT’S RIGHT ! THE ASSOCIATION’S FIRST MONTH IS FREE!.
A vibrant question and answer followed in which:
1) Many asked questions that were specific to their interest and they were answered.
2) Several attendees shared their specific experiences and concerns with the rest.
3) Several Associations who were already using this system expressed their satisfaction with it and invited others over to see it.
4) Andover A who used The Messinger’s free first month offer is already using the system and is VERY HAPPY and is now awaiting their refund.
