the doomed Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 (edited) Wondering when a couple of family friends will be able to get fibre. any more info than what's on the online checker? Fairly rural and 1mb upload is causing issues Edited December 3, 2015 by the doomed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andymac Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 Don't work for openreach but have had fibre installed at about 80 locations. Phone them up (Virgin, BT, SKY) not openreach. They will be able to give you a fairly good estimate of the fastest available speed and what technology is in the area (cable, FTTC, ADSL2+). If you drop me a PM with the postcode and house number I will see if a reseller I am visiting today can give you an estimate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andymac Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 Misread that. PhoneVirgin. They will know if they are in the area or soon will be: if they can't connect via their own network they resell BT. Presumably they will know about expansion plans.
