Superfast Broadband

DavidPrice — Mon, 25 Jan 2021 13:08:10 GMT

Hi I am wondering if anyone can answer why I cannot get super fast broadband as my neighbours 2 doors away and those opposite and the rest of my village all get it, there are 5 houses mine included whose postcode shows on the BT site that we cannot upgrade our Broadband. Yet everyone else has it and we are connected to the same Cabinet as the other neighbours? I have done the DSL Checker - below and as mentioned all the other houses next to me have it so I can only think this is an issue with BT database

The premise/line is associated with exchange which is NOT part of current fibre priority programme.

The premise/line is associated with exchange where WLR is not withdrawn.

The premise/line is associated with exchange where SOADSL service is restricted.

FTTP is not available.

For all ADSL and WBC Fibre to the Cabinet (VDSL or G.fast) services, the stable line rate will be determined during the first 10 days of service usage.

Actual speeds experienced by end users and quoted by CPs will be lower due to a number of factors within and external to BT's network, Communication Providers' networks and within customer premises.

The Stop Sale date for IPstream is from 31 Oct 2013. The Formal Retirement date for IPstream is from 30 Jun 2014.

f you decide to place an order for a WBC fibre product, an appointment may be required for an engineer to visit the end user's premises to supply the service

In order to be eligible for handback, downstream speed should be less than Downstream Handback Threshold values.

Thank you for your interest

are you a BT broadband customer?

if you have used your address it more accurate with phone number. which exchange and cab

there is something odd in that checker shows adsl with max 3.5mb but according to checker you have 15.53mb

Hi Thank you for the reply,

I used my home landline number - Yes I am with BT - to do the checker as having read other posts saw that was the best and most accurate way to check

As I mentioned in my post my neighbour 2 doors down c50metres away is being upgraded tomorrow. We only live in a small village on one road and yet all the other neighbours except 5 houses mine included in a row seemingly cannot get the upgrade I have spoken to neighbours across the road and they also with BT have got it and I saw BT OpenReach where in the area all Summer installing so not sure why us 5 cannot be upgraded?

Hi @DavidPrice ,

Run the checker for the neighbours' Tel. Nos. to see if they are on the same cabinet

licquorice — Mon, 25 Jan 2021 14:09:42 GMT

A screenshot of the table would make it much easier to see what the checker is saying, but you would appear to already be on 'Superfast Broadband'. The term Superfast Broadband doesn't imply any particular speed, it is just VDSL and your speed will be dependent on your distance from the cabinet.

@DavidPrice

as @licquorice posted I think you are already on fibre 1 just you are so far from cab that your speed range is only 14/7mb and you are fortunate to get faster at 15mb

post hub stats

DavidPrice — Mon, 25 Jan 2021 15:54:16 GMT

Hi Thanks for this

one other question if I may

what does it mean when it says on the DLS checker for my house that FTTP is available?

Re: Superfast Broadband

imjolly — Mon, 25 Jan 2021 15:56:57 GMT

the checker does not show FTTP but FTTP oD which is something different and due to cost aimed at business use
