BT FTTC pricing and availability

Zirax · 22-01-2010, 12:26

Shamelessly nicked the link but those prices aren't bad! They have an address checker on there. It really stings that my parents house can get cable, FTTC and my house the other side of the main road can't

The telephone number checker is borked but if you click "I don't have a BT line" then it works fine.

Fork all for us for a long time.

Same here

Not even listed for us, but no great surprise. Good new is that in June 2010 I'll be able to connect at up to 9Mb. I'm currently typing this from my 20Mb connection

Zirax · 24-01-2010, 12:46

You git

Through more tweaking I now have a max connection speed of 8.05Mb. That's it until something changes on the line. Be are trialling bonded lines but then I will only get 16mb for £50/month. At the moment 8mb is enough but this could change if we get more content online.

Matt, Boreham exchange gets upgraded to ADSL 2 in the next 3 weeks apparently so better than nothing

indicated date for your migration to our next generation network. Your connection is expected to move to the new platform on 16/02/2010, however the migration may complete before or after this date. On the day that your migration completes you may also find that your connection drops for a maximum of 10 minutes whilst work at the exchange is completed. As a consequence you may need to reboot your router. However, this is the only action that will be needed.

ADSL 2+ here we come

That's just what entanet are telling me. Does each provider need their own upgrade or is it done for all at the same time?

Apparently I should see a reasonable speed increase because my router is synced at 8128 which is pretty close to the max the current line can do. Real world increase, who knows?

You're all feckers!

I'm stuck with Kingston Communications and Karoo without a single alternative. They give me a 2MB line and 10GB limit for the bargain price of £17 pm on top of line rental and calls. Bah.
