I was like WHAT THE **** MAN!

The good news is this, after we hung up (since had until ****ING SUNDAY!!!) I decided to reboot the network box. BOOM, it works again.

So, for those of you with wall mounted Google fiber interface boxes (unless you know this already), if you lose all the lights, screw Google Fiber tech support and just reboot your network box. Turns out my neighbors have been doing that trick every few months since it was installed. LOL, WTF!

As for Google's business model and thinking three days is OK for people to wait for a service call, well there's some room for improvement...

My rep and installer said reboot once a month.
