What does "accepting CP orders mean?"
|
|
Communications Providers. See the start of the document.
Current BT-speak for ISPs and phone line rental companies.

My domains,website and mail hosting - Tsohost. Internet connection - IDNet Home Starter Fibre.

It seems my exchange has been spared from any delays.
On an unrelated note, does anyone know when the Phase 6 cabinet data will become available? My exchange was part of that phase when it was announced late last year, but every phone number and postcode in the exchange area still shows no message about FTTC availability on the checkers.

Are same here , BT have put the date back 9 moths in total now and as we get closer to September I expect the same to happen again .
As there are some cabinets already in place I spos I should be happy my exchange has actually been started .
As for those exchanges in the next stages I hold little hope of anything happening soon as there so far behind with there current roll out plans .

It essentially means the exchange is live. Or "live enough" for them to be accepting orders from ISPs on behalf of their end-users.
Because the actual installation at end-user properties is perhaps 10-days after ordering, they *could* go into a "accepting CP orders" state a couple of weeks before being fully live.
However, caution is still needed - an exchange being live doesn't mean your cabinet is yet live. My exchange went to "accepting CP orders" in November; the first people I know of to *actually* order did so in December, and connected after Christmas, but my cabinet is still not live. It did have some roadworks for power installation 3 weeks ago though...

Reading Central is live as of 16/03, yet that document still shows September. In the words of Duke Nukem - "It's ready when it's ready".

Well.. just.. what?
Sam knows states SMSU as live as of the 11/3 (which was updated from 1/3) but that doc is saying 30th Sept? It might be easier to just walk in the front door and ask them..

I just don't understand BT at all, On this new Roll-out DB, my Exchange is still March 2011 but on the the checkers it's June 2011. I would've have though that as a company they would be able to sync this information correctly as it's common sense

at least you on the list, it seems BT have stopped adding new exchanges now, so doesnt look good for people who are not on the list.
|

My exchange is showing as March '11 when in fact some areas of the town are live already.

I wish that other ISP's would come in for FTTC and then maybe BT would have to shape up and sort the exchanges out.

It does say "If the estimated service availability date on the exchange you are looking at has changed then please note that as previously indicated our rollout plans are indicative"
|
|
same in East Kilbride....
|
|
Possibly because people are complaining when dates change, so give no dates and they cannot complain

Some activation dates have been delayed for almost a year. Many people could have upgraded their connections for another year with that time frame. Not as fast as FTTC maybe, but faster all the same.
Maybe BT wanted to keep them dangling to prevent that from happening?
It did sound all a bit too optimistic with their "speeding up their roll out" statements over the last year.
Knowing how it works is completely different to understanding how it works.
|

Aye I can understand that, but surely the same company should have the same information.
I emailed Samknows yesterday about the dates on his site and he replied that they get their information from here:-
http://www.btwholesale.com/pages/static/Community/Br...
There is more information on this sheet alas was not about to access the 1st sheet as you need to log in.
Anybody got access to this ???????????????

"If the estimated service availability date on the exchange you are looking at has changed then please note that as previously indicated our rollout plans are indicative" I wonder how indicative that is?
|
|
I can get to Tags on the line which shows more upto date data than samknows but not that one.
