I suppose it gives more time for planning and we will learn from the experiences of those who get it installed earlier.

readingg - currently there's only a 20m cable option, they are looking at doing a 30m option in the future but it's not available yet. Does that present a problem?
herbiejhopkins - order looking good for Monday.

Please add me to the list for FTTP trial. I'm in Middleton, Milton Keynes, and on the Bradwell Abbey exchange. Postcode MK10 9JR. The Openreach guys said they were pretty much finished in my street. Happy to be in any publicity too.
Many thanks
David

My FTTP line was activated this morning!! There were a few technical difficulties yesterday and so the engineers couldn't quite finish the job then (turned out somebody had neglected to plug a cable in at the exchange). They were back at 8am this morning though to finish the job.
Once the ONT had been activated it was a simple matter of plugging in my router and reconfiguring with the PPPoE details (I'm using my own Netgear WNR3500L rather than the Thomson unit as I already had that and am quite happy with it). I didn't have too much time to test things out this morning as I had to come into work but did manage to do a few speed tests. The best download speed I got was 77Mb!! I tried 3-4 different speed test sites and the results did seem to vary a bit but it may well depend on how much bandwidth the site has/how busy it was more than the line. I was getting the 15Mb upstream consistently. Latency was pretty incredible as well, I was getting 5-6ms to bbc.co.uk. I must find time to fire up a FPS at some point and pwn.
I'll be sure to do some more thorough
Many thanks,
Herbie

You do realise I will now be forced to get a couple more FTTC lines installed and bonded together just so I can beat your speeds

herbiejhopkins - brilliant! So glad that it's working. Be interesting to see what it's like tonight. Thinkbroadband have asked if you can run their speedtest if you have time please:

Shouldn't have too wait too much longer mind you, I haven't seen a Openreach van in Middleton for a few days which would hopefully suggest they are finished installing the fibre.
