It really varies. There is no specific timeframe but usually it's sorted within a month or two. It depends on how they're getting the backhaul to the exchanges. Sometimes it could require digging up roads and laying more cable.
They do have a habit of pushing dates back and back (i.e. not giving accurate dates in the first place).

Interesting that the ETA was brought forward on one update and then put back again. I'd say that shows they're at least planning something rather than just giving a standard "3 weeks" fix time.
