My exchange (poplar) is due to be upgraded to FTTC at year end.
However im on an EO line so wont be able to get it

The only option I considered is to ask a local neighbour (that can get it) if they mind an additional line being installed on my behalf with me paying costs - I'm not sure what practical or legal issues this will raise (as I wouldnt have physical access to the router) - I am in range of their wifi so technically this approach would work)
I can wait in hope that FTTP isnt too far away for EO lines - I'm just worried BT may never bother

Any other thoughts?
I'm surprised to be on an EO line as am some distance from the exchange and have a noisy line (see stats):
