New construction - cable appears to be connected, but support says construction is still required

Hello,

I have a new construction home that needs internet service.

I see a coax cable running from my basement, out of the house, and running up the power pole. I believe that means I'm connected to the network, and Comcast just needs to get my address into the system. I have attached 2 pictures below showing the coax cable.

However, after calling Comcast, they sent out a survey team and a construction team to assess the property, who concluded that it will take 1-3 months to do construction. I can't get an answer as to why they need to do construction when the cables all appear to be connected.

In the meantime, I cannot move into the house because I need the internet for work.

I'm looking for the answers to the following questions

  1. What construction (or additional work) needs to be done?
  2. Is there a way to track the progress of the ticket/work that needs to be done?

Thank you
