BT Infinity & FTTx Discussion

I think there's a space in the HH5 box for it, if I remember correctly, so it should arrive at the same time.

It didn't but BT have on enquiry reliably informed me that one has been dispatched and gave me the tracking info, which wasn't on the original order, whether this was an error or not I do not know.

There did seem to be room in box, and the box had dongle (optional) written on the outside of it, just no optional dongle inside, still should arrive in time.
 
Nor me, perhaps they are testing something. Perhaps they are going to charge me for pro? Perhaps someone has pushed the wrong button.

Either way, I consider myself winning ;)
 
Thanks for the help guys. I eventually found out it was my onboard Killer nic that was limited to 14mb in network manager. Going at a full 75mb now
 
So with the relaunch of FTTPod I put mum and dad's landline number into BT ADSL checker which shows no FTTPod option. However, our old address shows FTTPod as available. Do you think that BT need to update the checker as I understood any property with FTTC availability could upgrade?
 
Why can't I order BT Infinity?

Infinity is available in your area but due to high demand there is currently no capacity left at your local cabinet. There will be a waiting period until we can activate the service.

But being with sky, BT will no doubt get first choice when connections become available.

It's much more limited. I think there's something like 46 cabinets/exchanges (I forget which) enabled across the whole estate that can do FTTP. Something like 20 of them in cornwall.

This shouldn't happen. Openreach aren't allowed to give preferential treatment to any provider.
 
Got my speed increase today after re-contracting for another 12 months. HH5 shows 55Mbps and getting a nice stable 6MB/sec on Steam. Perfect!
