I do like the sound of test lines...

That's what I am waiting for!

My current estimates for VDSL are slightly better than those in the screenshot above so it will be very interesting when it goes live for me.

Where's my G.fast?Where's my G.fast?

I quite honestly don't know at this time, I currently max out an 80/20 line and will need to consider if the extra speed is worth it.

Re: Todays News from BT

@Browni With these stats from @Manny7860 will give you not much on g.fast estimated speed. (probably 259 High / 200 Low) as I will getting the same as Manny 7860 on these g.fast estimated speed because my VDSL are 80 High / 70 Low) as I expecting my g.fast will be 256 High / 197 Low) but I remember a long while back when VDSL went first live, it was estimated at 80 High / 77 Low, so it was 7 Meg to lose over the last 4 years. Not sure if g.fast will lose around 10 Meg over the next few years when more peoples were connected on the g.fast service.

 

@Manny7860 are you going to sign up with g.fast? Only two isp's have it now are BT and Cerberus for the g.fast service.

Thanks for this @bobpullen So it look like I probably getting around 200/30 with approx 250m for g.fast.

 

Yesterday BTw has updated to show up g.fast as planned for my cabinet 8 as it was estimated speed download of 246 and upload speed of 35. My guest of this speed is spot on within my 250m away from the street cabinet.
