4. Equipment Requirements
You may lease a router from AtLink or may purchase one that is compliant with AtLink’s wireless network from any third party retail store. AtLink reserves the right to provide Service only to users with AtLink-approved compliant routers. You agree to only connect AtLink-approved equipment to the AtLink network.
You will not remove any AtLink-owned equipment (the “Equipment”) from your premises or connect the Equipment to any outlet other than the outlet to which the Equipment was initially connected by the AtLink installer. AtLink may relocate the Equipment for you within the Premises at your request for an additional charge. If you relocate to a new premises address, this Agreement shall automatically terminate and you will be required to enter into a new Agreement and may be charged a new installation fee to initiate Service. You will not connect any equipment, other than equipment authorized by AtLink, to the router port. You understand that failure to comply with this restriction may cause damage to the AtLink network and subject you to liability for damages. You may not alter, modify, or tamper with the Equipment or the Service, or permit any other person to do the same.
5. Installation
You authorize AtLink personnel and/or its agents to enter your premises at mutually agreed upon times in order to install, maintain, inspect, and repair AtLink-owned Equipment on your premises. If you are not the owner of the premises upon which the Service is to be installed, you represent and warrant that you have obtained the consent of the owner of the premises for AtLink personnel and/or its agents to enter the premises for the purposes described above. You shall indemnify and hold AtLink harmless from and against any claims of the owner of the premises arising out of the performance of this Agreement.
AtLink will install AtLink-owned Equipment in a prompt and workmanlike manner using the necessary tools and materials. Some installations may require special devices such as installed metal poles to elevate or specially position antennas or other equipment to ensure optimum telecommunication signals with towers. AtLink shall have no responsibility for the maintenance of your internal wiring. If AtLink makes use of poles owned by the local telephone company and/or the electric company to connect your Service to the internet, the continued use of these poles is in no way warranted by AtLink. You agree that you will make no claim or take any action against AtLink or the utility if Service to be provided by AtLink hereunder is disrupted or discontinued due to unavailability of the poles.
You acknowledge and agree that installation of the Service (including the Licensed Software) may require AtLink personnel and/or its agents to open your computer. You further acknowledge and agree that installation and/or use of the Service (including the Licensed Software) may result in the modification of your computer’s systems files and that AtLink may periodically update the software in order to provide the Service. AtLink neither represents, warrants, nor covenants that such modifications will not disrupt the normal operations of, or the data stored on, your computer. AtLink shall have no liability whatsoever for any damage resulting from loss of data or the installation and/or use of the Licensed Software or file modifications. AtLink is not responsible for returning your computer to its original configuration prior to installation. AtLink or its agents will supply and install certain software and, if required, an extra data outlet, a router and an Ethernet card for a fee determined by AtLink. AtLink will also provide a “getting started guide” and online instructions on how to use the Service. AtLink shall use reasonable efforts to install the Service to full operational status, provided that your computer fulfills the minimum computer requirements set forth herein. You may transfer the Licensed Software to additional computers within the home, but service and support for these additional machines is limited and/or may incur an additional fee. Unless offered by AtLink as a service, you agree that AtLink has no responsibility to provide service and support for in-home networks. If you intend to transfer the software, you must give AtLink prior notice of such transfer.
6. Retrieval of AtLink-owned Equipment After Termination of Service
You agree to accommodate the scheduling of an appointment at your premises to allow AtLink personnel to retrieve AtLink-owned Equipment promptly after termination of Service, and to allow AtLink personnel access to your premises to remove AtLink-owned Equipment after termination of Service. AtLink personnel have AtLink identification you may request and examine. If you are not at home at the time of a service call, you may authorize any other adult resident (18 years or older) or guest at your residence to grant AtLink access to your premises. You also agree to that AtLink-owned equipment so retrieved shall be in good working order condition except for ordinary wear and tear resulting from proper use.
If you do not allow or accommodate the scheduling of an appointment at your premises for AtLink personnel to retrieve AtLink-owned Equipment, or if such Equipment is not present or in good working order ("Unreturned Equipment"), the damages AtLink will incur will be difficult to ascertain. Therefore, you agree to pay, and AtLink may charge your account a liquidated damages amount equal to the then current replacement cost of such equipment, such charge not to exceed $700.00. The terms of this paragraph shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement.
7. Internet Speeds and Signal Latency
Package speeds are measured to the edge of AtLink’s network. AtLink will use reasonable efforts in accordance with industry standards and practices to provide you the download and upload speeds, and shortest signal latency, applicable to your Service rate plan but AtLink does not guarantee such speeds and latency, and you hereby acknowledge, that such speeds or signal latency may not be achieved at all times. Internet connection speeds and signal latency are, by their nature, affected by many factors outside of the control of AtLink including customer’s location, websites accessed, Internet congestion, physical obstructions, customer’s personal equipment, and weather. Due to these conditions, package speeds are not guaranteed and are strictly considered “up to”, to wit, the maximum performance applicable to your rate plan.
8. Fees for Service Calls to Your Premises
AtLink reserves the right to impose a reasonable charge for service calls to your premises to repair, upgrade, or replace damaged or non-functioning AtLink-owned Equipment, or to repair, upgrade, replace, or configure your user-provided equipment in order to restore or improve Service at your premises. AtLink offers a service call coverage monthly fee to its customers whereby you may avoid one-time service call fees to restore or improve Service at your premises. In addition, if you miss a scheduled service call appointment you agree that AtLink may charge a $50.00 Reschedule fee.
