My girlfriend and the other girl in the house were here when the tech came and they were not comfortable with him nor him watching our TV, leaving the door open and laying covered in sweat all over our couch, but it would have been cool had he got everything right.
Sounds like your girlfriend and the 'other girl' had that tech pretty distracted. Enough to get the couch all "covered in sweat"! He probably screwed (no pun intended) it up on purpose so he had to come back.

 Hahaha. And what's the box they put on the outside of the house (similar to a NID for telephone service and right by the NID and electric meter, connected all on the same ground wire)? I guess it's needed for the HSI or the digital cable. I didn't realize there was anything additional needed other than a standard splitter. Does the modem signal have to be filtered from the other cable signals?

 It's an SDU. An enclosure to protect the ground block and any splitters etc. Not necessary for the service to work but recommended.

How many TVs do you have connected to cable? How many splitters are installed?

BTW Welcome to the Mediacom forum!

Albany, GA		 Tech did not show up Thursday. One is supposed to come Monday now. And of course it's storming now have had to powercycle the modem a few times and not all TV stations are working.
