ordered pair at both the neighborhood cross-box and your phone box. 
• The telephone company technician calls the vendor and a cooperative 
test is run to ensure this line will support the ordered level of service. 
Stage 4:
 IP Addresses & Circuit Configured  
Besides the cooperative test that is run on the firm order commitment, or 
FOC, date, Step 4 backs up this test with three additional line tests to 
make sure this line has a consistent line quality. Next, the vendor 
schedules one of their installation technicians for a weekday installation 
appointment. We provide this date to you via an automatic email 
message to your contact address. 
Stage 5:
 Configuration Information Sent  
Now that your line is ready for installation by a technician, Speakeasy will 
send you IP
 address(es) and the necessary network information to 
configure your network/computer. This information is sent to your contact 
email address and provided on MySpeakeasy. 
Stage 6:
 Install Confirmed  
The final stage in getting your service working and available for use is the 
installation appointment we sent to you on Step 4. The technician will call 
into his support center to communicate the successful installation, which 
is immediately communicated to Speakeasy. Speakeasy immediately 
marks your account as active
. Activation does not effect whether your 
service is technically working, but it does mean that you are considered a 
live customer and we have entered you into our billing cycle. This is the 
start of your committed term of service with Speakeasy. 
Stage 7:
 Setup Fee Received 
Between midnight and 2am on the day after your Speakeasy account 
becomes activated, the Speakeasy billing system generates your email 
invoice, which contains: Any hardware and install fees The pro-rated 
amount of service within that current month And your first full 30-day 
period of service charge. For more details about how Speakeasy 
invoicing works, please jump down to the Speakeasy Billing section of 
this manual on this page
. 
Stage 8:
 Installation Complete 
When you pay your initial invoice, your installation process is complete.
