21CN Upgrades - Exchange Status Checker

Anotherone — Tue, 12 Mar 2013 12:47:57 GMT

I've just come across one that is certainly not up to date, so I wonder how widespread the issue is? Can Plusnet get this looked into and all exchanges updated asap please?
This is the example http://www.samknows.com/broadband/exchange/SLHO

Nice to see someone trying to help me out
What the chance of that 21CN being brought forward. Also is it correct as when BT man was here last week or week before to correct my line fault he said 21CN was already enabled

http://www.samknows.com/broadband/exchange/WNMAC has a RFS date for 21CN, PN's exchange checker say no date for 21CN.

So by the looks of it, it is going to be widespread

I see that WNMAC and SLHO are about the same size, how much smaller is yours?

A lot smaller unfortunately - about a third on business lines and 43% on residential. We might get 21CN by the end of 2014, if the way I read something from a BT page about phasing out the old tech by then was right. Fibre maybe after that, our L..A and adjacent L..A have got together and awarded some contract/funds to BT OR to install FTTC to rural areas.

This should be the latest info from BT - https://www.btwholesale.com/shared/document/Library/Network_Information/21CN_Broadband_Availibility/WBC_SFBB_Dataset_20130305.xls

That list is wrong. It doesn't show WNAE (http://www.samknows.com/broadband/exchange/WNAE) has having 21CN, but I know first hand it does.

Thanks for bringing that to our attention I'll get this chased up as I'm not sure who deals with this but I'll find out what I can.
