Make sure you ask the engineer what sync speed he/she gets when the line is tested, then you will know what the best download speed you will be able to achieve...

Ask SWMBO to ask the engineer then  Smiley
It's just that you will not have access to the sync speed of the BT VDSL modem...after the install...

Re: todays the day for my fibre install!

i am soooo angry now! just had the BT engineer call me, he seems to think he came at 8:30am, rang the bell, knocked on the door, and called me on my phone, but nobody opened the door for him! can  u believe it!
i recieved no phone call either! until 1230!
my wife recieved a parcel force delivery at exactly 8:10am this morning, actually been awake since 8am!
i asked the engineer to describe my flat, and he got it wrong!!!!!!!
now he's sent the job back, and he can't do the install today.......... Angry Angry Angry

Hi halster65,
I've had one of our provisioning team on to our suppliers and apparently the engineer still has the job and is still scheduled to come out.

Re: todays the day for my fibre install!

regarding my speed, will I get fibre speed straight away? or will you have to adjust manually?
