not all cabs that are going to be done are ready yet.

Just seen this on another thread.

In reply to a post by Anonymous:

......... They say once they have 10 cabinets installed and completely wired up they activate it, im not sure if thats true or not.

So I wonder how many are done in Broadstairs, I've seen quite a lot installed.

PS RobertoS, ask my robotic lamp post, it might know

I wonder what the heck "Superfast Broadband has started to become available in ...." is supposed to mean. Is it available, or isn't it?

exchanges are opened to CP when at least 10 cabinses are live (not all cabs will comes linve at the sme time) -- so if 10 are readfy to go then theyr will open the exchnage to CP fro marketing

Anybody in Broadstairs / Ramsgate wants to post their cabinet number and location, and also whether the FTTC cabinets been installed I'm making a list to see how close we are to the 10 cabinets.

I'll post the list later.

I am on {NDRAM}{P17}. It has not been done yet

Thanks for the info, location would have been helpful

A quick check on the postcodes for P17 reveals it covers quite a large area (Winterstoke Crescent across to Albert Rd), and I remembered seeing a cabinet on the corner of Dumpton Park Drive & Thanet Road, and it was indeed 17

Here's what I've got so far:

Exchange: Cab No. FTTC Cab (Y/N) followed by Location

NDBRO 18 Yes Juction of The Maples and Rumfields Rd
NDRAM 1 No 3 High Street St Lawrence
NDRAM 5 Yes Junction of Saxon Rd and Chilton Lane
NDRAM 6 Yes 19 Canterbury Road East
NDRAM 13 Yes Corner of Grange Road by Roundabout
NDRAM 17 No Corner of Dumpton Park Drive & Thanet Road
NDRAM 22 No Junction of Manston Rd and Newington Road
NDRAM 27 Yes Juction of Southeastern Rd and Vale Road
NDRAM 44 Yes 55 London Road
NDRAM 49 Yes 73 Windermere Avenue
NDRAM 53 Yes Opposite 31 Northwood Road

Edit: Cab 34 Ramsgate (Junction of Arklow Square and Victoria Rd) due to be installed 13/03/2012 to 22/03/2012 (estimated)

I've come up with this Google Map tonight, seems like Ramsgate has at least 7 cabinets already installed that I know of.

If you want to post your cabinet number and location, and if FTTC cabinet is installed or not I'll add it to the map - Ramsgate & Broadstairs only please.

Hi can someone tell me when my cab will be enabled please? CT119NH in Ramsgate
thanks

I found your other cabinet today, it's P40 and it's on the junction of West Cliff Rd & Crescent Rd. Both your potential cabinets (13 & 40) now have FTTC cabinets installed - they're just doing 40 now.

Apparently the Super Fast where and when site has been updated today.

Bad news for Sandwich - date is now showing June 2012, as for Ramsgate, Margate and Broadstairs it's still showing as March 2012 so I can only presume that the exchanges should go live in the next fortnight or before June anyway

Dont know how accurate the TalkTalk checker is but is showing Ramsgate, Broadstairs and Margate as July 2012 although nothing on the BT Checker.
TalkTalk is showing Sandwich June 2012
