What, if any, improvements are those of us served by ECI cabinets likely to see in 2018?

I predict at least Ginp and hope for 3db.

The information on this forum seems reliable and hopefully a wider trial of Ginp will start quickly in the new year.

Let's hope people start to report more ECI users with Ginp on MDWS.  If unchanged there were at least 1 or 2 on MDWS that never had it removed from when it was switched on last time so they have have trialled it for 2 years with no problems.

Personally I wish they speeded up the process they seem to be slowing the implementation for no real reason.

sadly I am unconvinced we will see g.inp any time soon. as from previous emails I shared from OR the last I had implied several months of a trial and then a review of the data so to me it sounds like a long long time away if at all.

I just have a feeling G.INP will get further delays or perhaps disappear into the void eventually, never to transpire. Subsequently 3 dB won't happen either if that doesn't. There's been too many issues with ECI DSLAM's and unfortunately they were a mistake for Openreach, a big mistake, but even if G.INP never happens Openreach certainly won't be obliged to replace them with Huawei. It's wrong that there should be a two tier FTTC service at the same price (three if you count vectoring) but sadly that's the way things are.
