We just built a new house in 2021. The builder ran 2" schedule 40 from the side of the house out to the distribution point in front of my neighbor's house. I didn't specify 2" - that's what the builder ran. A portion of that run must have existed before construction because no one had to tear up my neighbor's yard to get to the distro box. Once I convinced Verizon that Fios was indeed available in this neighborhood (separate matter entirely), it was an easy matter for the tech to pull the drop cable through the empty conduit, drill a hole a few feet above the foundation and land the cable in the basement. I didn't run any surface tube or conduit in the basement, but there was enough room for the install tech to run the cable without too much of a fight.

If anyone assumes that residential real estate general contractors and low voltage/wiring subcontractors know or care about wifi signal or not putting RF units inside metal boxes - that would be a bad assumption to make.
