BTO vans x2 working in box near my house
renluop:
Came home the other day and there were two BTO vans parked with men working on an inspection pit near my house.
Could be mere coincidence but up to now the postcode checker has shown my and several other addresses that are connected to the same cab as a minority unable to get FTTC. ( I think our house were built in a developer's final phase). Now we can get FTTC albeit at low speeds, that seem to make it hardly worth the bother.
With insomnia and other spare moments I prepared a spreadsheet of each address's estimate, and it is confusing why one should get good speed whilst next door gets the inferior service.
For any interested the link is https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Al6WAVYKSZrBdHhQTnkxSW45QU9LbC00cUxLZWVEV2c&hl=en_US

No thoughts? Is this a renluop lead balloon? ;D

Have you put your details into the BT checker to see what you can get via their Infinity service

Yes, I am one of the lesser households!
What I fail to see is why one property can produce 25.4 Mbps whilst its neighbour only 12.5; one side of a short road 12.5, the other no service.
It's not as if they are mansions: they are 3bed linked-det,semis and small bungalows.

If these are just BT estimated speeds they can't be taken too literally. Have any of your neighbours actually subscribed to an FTTC service?
