Sounds like you got a great deal!
Expect the installation to take 4-6 hours, schedule for first time slot in the morning if you can.
When I had my Fios service installed, The installer had to run a new fiber optic line from the street to my house. The copper connection was left in place.
They can install the box outside or inside. I had them install the FIOS box in my basement near an outlet. It's not a small box, there's a large backup battery included.
The coax runs through the basement ceiling, outside to my office and bedroom, and inside to the living room.
I helped out with the coax routing on the outside of my house to make sure it was as discreet as possible.
everything else was pretty straightforward.
They should supply you with free DVR/HD boxes, remotes, HDMI cables from the box to TV, and wireless routers.
They should also do a speed test for your internet connection to make sure everything is performing as it should.
I'm happy with the service. The channel guides and menus load faster than other cable companies and a million times faster than satellite.
