BT Infinity & FTTx Discussion

@kindai is it free to get Cerberus to have OR complete the desktop survey for FTTPoD? I'd like to put a request in to Cerberus if I can get a desktop survey, long as it costs me zilch. :D

EDIT: I can see it seems to be a free desk survey, so have put my request in! Let's see what comes back within the next 14 days then... I will not hold my breath!

I think the way this will play out is that EAD ends up costing less than FTTPoD. It's not uncommon to see 100Mbps for £250 in more urban areas, without an install charge.
 
Sorry forgot to ask @kindai what was the monthly rental cost? And are the only FTTPoD products they offer 300/30?

You would think with FTTP you could get the 330/50 packages or look at 500+ although that may be a future product maybe?
 
It’s BT Infinity 1 - my connection has been down since Sunday so I’m guessing it’s being slowed by the exchange until stable?

I’m probably using the wrong nomenclature too :o

Connected at 43.69Mbps down, 1.23Mbps up.

I'm pretty sure Infinity 1 isn't set on a 1 or 2 Meg profile. Either your profile has been set incorrectly or there's still a fault. What does http://dslchecker.bt.com say for your upload range?
 
Where would I find that? All I can see is the connected rates I posted above. I've just started a live chat to arrange the pro rata refund for the lost connection days so I'll ask them about a DLM reset.
 
I've just had BT Ultrafast Fibre installed today, upgrading from BT Infinity.
My old speeds were 70 down, 20 up. With this new setup, which just required a new master socket and HomeHub, is now 250 down, 40 up (although this is due to increase to nearly 260 once it's settled down).

Very happy!
