A BT engineer who was working at my house and the local cabinet told me yesterday that GFast is available in my street, but sales say it is not available. Why the difference, and can I do anything to get it?
Solved! Go to Solution.

Re: Can I get Gfast
It may be available in your street but you may be too far from the cabinet. G.Fast only works over very short distances.
Put your phone number in the checker and post a screenshot of the result (remember to edit out your phone number from the screenshot before posting)

Re: Can I get Gfast
Thanks to both. Here is the screenshot. It has come out very small. If you can't see what is needed please me know which parts you need and I'll extract them. I am probably in the region of 100 meters from the cabinet. I get over 70 megs on my FTTC broadband.

It would say G.Fast on the right and give you the estimated speeds as er the VDSL entries.

Re: Can I get Gfast
Thanks again. I did not get any help from that 0800.. number. They only repeated that gfast is not available. So I shall have to give up without finding out why it is not available despite being told by the engineer that it is.

Re: Can I get Gfast
If the route of your line is more then 300mtrs from the cabinet you won't get G.Fast.

Re: Can I get Gfast
It is nowhere near 300 meters. More like 100 meters
