Simcfc73 Posted July 1, 2014 Posted July 1, 2014 Just got round to testing the new Infinity line today and its hitting 78Mb, well pleased. I already have 1 infinity which never got over 35Mb so either they have put me in a diferent cab or I am just lucky. All I have to do now is hook up my new SW box to use them both... happy time. PS. Openreach did a perfect job, I know they get bad press and I was nervous they would cut the wrong wire but this time... spot on.
xenonive Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 Maybe they have put you on the right product now as there is two options 40Mb download 10Mb upload then there is 80Mb download and 20Mb upload
cooka Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 I have infinity - upgraded from a 10mb (probably about 6), BB in my old home. now hitting 40mb DL! its like christmas!
flyinghaggis Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 I've just gone from 1.3Mbps broadband to 35Mbps fibre. Lets just say the difference is certainly noticeable!
robjduk Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 Im lucky. No fibre optic but in Kent there is a wireless internet ISP called vFast. When I heard about it I didn't in a million years think internet through the air would work but here I am, 25mb download and 10 upload. Why the country is not covered I just don't know.
TechMonkey Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 I've been waiting a year for fibre to be made active in my area. All the checkers say it is installed, that it is ready and I can order but the BT site says that it will be installed in the next 2-3 months. & has done since last July.
hawc Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 I currently have this from Virgin: http://www.speedtest.net/result/3599762152.png Soon to be on 100 meg down and I don't think they are doing the upload any time soon. My phone can beat that upload....
Gaz Posted July 4, 2014 Posted July 4, 2014 I've been on Fibre for a while now and considering I live in a rural area the speed is great. http://www.speedtest.net/result/3603532643.png
plexer Posted July 4, 2014 Posted July 4, 2014 They are currently digging the trench in order to run the power to my local infinity cab. Ben
SchoolsBroadband Posted July 4, 2014 Posted July 4, 2014 My cabinet has just been upgraded but its not yet live. I should go from 12Mbit download to 76Mbit down. I could even get a 330Mbit FTTP circuit installed if I want Hurry up please Openreach but good job so far! Dave
localzuk Posted July 4, 2014 Posted July 4, 2014 Our area is one which will be upgraded via government subsidy - under the "Connecting Devon and Somerset" banner. No date scheduled yet for the main town in our district, but lots of random little villages have been upgraded already. Supposedly, we'll be getting it by the end of 2016.
Bananas Posted July 4, 2014 Posted July 4, 2014 Mine says future exchange, but when you look at the list of exchanges it says year 2014. So fingers crossed it's some time this year

If you don't get too much noise from foliage, which we do...
localzuk Posted July 8, 2014 Posted July 8, 2014 Ooh! Ooh! A notice has appeared on a traffic light near my house with a "Notice of installation of fixed line fibre cabinet"! Its happening!
