Re: G.INP

Hi, sorry to join so late, but how do you check if your line has been enabled for G.INP?
Thanks

Re: G.INP

@northEasterner  you could ask someone form the CRT to post your current line profile, if it says Re-transmission in it then your line is G.INP enabled if it doesn't then it's not.

Re: G.INP

Has anyone heard of any news regarding G.INP rollout on ECI cabs yet?

Re: G.INP

Last I heard was it had/is being trailed on select amount of cabs... there was some issues and doubts of a rollout somewhere too but I'm not certain on that...
I've got a friend on an ECI right now and he is still on fast path or Interleaved depending on how much he messes with his modem Cheesy
I'm assuming something will happen with ECI's at some point but think theres alot of dotting I's and crossing T's going on this time to make sure there isn't a huge surge of complaints and engineer calls required.

Re: G.INP

There is no known yet of ECI cabinet for G.INP enabled. I believed it only on the Huawei cabinets at present.

Re: G.INP

There is no date for the ECI rollout at present, Kitz had a talk with a high up at openreach he said "The issue here is that some of our field test equipment requires new firmware to work with retransmission across our ECI estate. As soon as we are comfortable with the stability of this firmware, we will begin the rollout of retransmission across the ECI DSLAMs As soon as we have an update on our plans for the ECI rollout we will let you and the industry know".

It's nothing new they said this back when the trial for the G.INP mk2 was being done, It's still a sit and wait game for ECI, I'm hoping we will see something this year but it's looking more and more doubtful.

Re: G.INP

Is there a way of finding out if your cabinet is ECI?

Re: G.INP

Go and enter your telephone number on BT Availiability Checker and get the cabinet number and you go outside search and find your cabinet! Picture of cabinets here: http://www.robertos.me.uk/html/street_cabinets_etc.html

Re: G.INP

Sorry - the answer's probably somewhere in the 70-odd preceding pages, but I couldn't find it quickly enough.
Could someone please summarise what the current situation is (regarding G.INP on upstream and downstream) for prople who are connected to a Huawei cabinet but have an ECI Openreach modem? I vaguely remember that there was a problem, and then some sort of fix, but I don't know what the fix was. I do know that my ping time doubled for a while, then returned to normal, but I'm not sure whether there's been any difference to my line speed.

The handheld tester issue was fixed a couple of months ago and the migration glidepath for ECI was published to working group members in mid Aug.
