yondoo Broadband does not guarantee that subscribed bandwidth will be 95% available between any two points on the Internet. Outside networks may experience technical issues or limitations that canimpact your service’s performance. While yondooBroadband ensures that all points of ingress and egress do not reach their provisioned capacity, yondoo Broadband cannot ensure or verify the integrity of neighboring networks.

If, for any reason, purchased bandwidth is not available as a result ofcongestion on yondoo Broadband’s network,applicable account credits will be issued in accordance with the credit schedule.

Intrusive Testing Procedure

If a service’s performance is believed to bedegraded or incapable of using its subscribed bandwidth, yondoo Broadband may determine that it is necessary to perform additional tests to verify the availability of subscribed bandwidth and re-certify the service’s integrity.

Intrusive testing may involvedisconnecting network equipment and/or disrupting live traffic across your network. yondoo Broadband will schedule an intrusive testing window between 9AM to 5PM local time, Monday through Friday to meet the needs of the Customer, at which time, a Customer representative must be on-site.

For purchased bandwidth of 1 Gbps, the usage of specialized testing devices may be required to achieve desired throughput. yondoo Broadband does not make any representations or warranties as to the performance of your computers, peripherals, or other network hardware and/or their abilities to sustain data transfers at any purchased bandwidth level.

You agree to participate in intrusive testing if yondoo Broadband engineers determine that these tests are necessary in demonstrating bandwidth availability. yondoo Broadband reserves the right to deny the issuance of account credits otherwise allocated under its service guarantees when a request for intrusive testing is refused.

If an on-site service call is required and intrusive testing by a yondoo Broadband engineer reveals full bandwidth availability and no service degradation, a dispatch fee of up to $350 may apply.

Service Availability

yondoo Broadband guarantees that your service’sconnection to the Internet will be available at up to 99% of the time averaged over 1 year.
