How do I find out where my Cabinet is?

I thought I knew where it was as I have two green cabs here

But then I saw a Virgin Media van outside it and someone poking about inside. I am not to sure where else it might be?

Anyway to find out?

Thank you.

These pics may help. BT ones have 1 to 3-digit numbers stencilled or scrawled on them. VM ones have long numbers.

I've tried B21 8JA in the December 2011 spreadsheets but that wasn't listed at that time. The exact postcode you are in may give more info, but may not.

Have you looked what this checker says for your phone number?

B21 8JE

My number is not in the BT database as its a Sky number

hey m8

I am b26

Try the address option at my earlier link then . Not the pure postcode one.

Cabinet 103, and should have been live literally years ago.

Oh its live and I do have Fibre. I am just curious as to where my cab is

Lol. Can't you follow the cables from your house?
What speeds do you get - this may indicate how far away it is?

DownStream Connection Speed 40001
UpStream Connection Speed 10000

Grrrr! .

It's still 103.

That doesn't help much either. Have you unlocked the modem? If so, what are the attainable rates.

Are BT cabs white or green round there?

Not unlocked. Heard you need to solder a 9 pin d-sub connection to it.

ECI? Or use a clothes-peg. Or buy an unlocked one off Ebay.
Anyway, that looks like a fibre cab.

Drive past that every single day. Camouflaged very well in the trees.

Yep those are probably they, you can see the new seams in the road where they did the construction to link the fibre cabinet to the old one.

As BatBoy says, that's a fibre cab. Huawei 288 if I'm not mistaken. Looks narrower than normal, but all the features are right and don't fit any other I know of.

The one the other side of the road is the PCP. It's the PCP that has the number, not the fibre one.

Round my way OR have started putting the number of the associated PCP on the fibre cabinets. Mind you it could be because there are quite a few fibre cabinets that are in different roads to the PCP.
