I was never going to do that. Please read before you post. I already am going onto campus an additional 2x just to use the wireless being broadcast from campus, but that's 1 hr of bus and waiting time or 20 extra miles of driving a day.

[This is a bad idea,

Instead, call then up and ask if you get suplimentary internet will they reduce that amount off the rent. Ask nicely.

This is probably going to be what I end up doing, I can talk to them tomorrow and run to the local Charter branch tomorrow before close to grab the equipment and have working internet tomorrow.

I tried to call the landlord today, and she was gone. Again. I have a feeling she's trying to avoid the situation.

I think the ground being frozen is a BS. If it was frozen how where they able to dig it up in the first place to break it.

It's not your leaseholder's fault if the construction crew are being jerks.
