Yes, but I got the date wrong it's over 2 weeks, the 20th.

Strange just noticed downloads are faster, router stats show 5954 kbps, I've never got to 4000 kbps before. and a few weeks ago when I last checked it was only about 3000 kbps. Maybe they have replaced some cables or equipment in the cab!

One more cabinet nearly ready - NDTHA 19 - with a speed estimate and date of 30th September.

No new live cabs on Broadstairs or Ramsgate, not even a single RFS date or estimated speed either.

Cabinet number 18 not showing as being enabled but plusnet said it is available and accepted order on it. Was told this is due to systems not being updated.

Is that cabinet 18 in Margate or Ramsgate? Presume it's not Broadstairs as thats mine, and I don't think that would be live yet as they are still doing duct works along Rumfields Rd, and of course nothing else was live in Broadstairs when I checked at the weekend.

Just tried a fair few addresses on both Margate & Ramsgate 18 and nothing.

On another note I did see them (Tel-Lec or Tel-co) laying fibre along Canterbury Rd East this evening between cab 6 & 49 in Ramsgate.

sorry its cabinet NDRAM 18 that has been enabled and been ordered. However i notice that they could not give me an expected speed when ordering ad still not showing on BT website. this must be because they are taking there time updating the databases.

Bit strange that, suggests either Plus Net or all ISP's have access to different data than the BT Wholesale checker.

I've updated it on the map, when is your install scheduled?

I'll check that specific cabinet over the next few days, wonder if this is a sign that others on that route from the exchange will go live soon.

It also looks like NDRAM 21 is finally going to be installed over the next few days, with just 3 left to do in Ramsgate after that one.

My FTTC broadband on NDRAM18 has been arranged to be installed on the 23rd of July.

Hmmm well that is odd. I believe that's the cabinet I'm connected to, so I tried phoning up BT and ordering Infinity, hoping it would be enabled on their systems - no luck.

Seems very strange Plusnet are able to then. And also quite annoying.

Yep, thats the one the spreadsheet said your postcode was connected to.

BT does have access to two different systems, the wholesale checker showed my brother in Orpington could get it, but BT sales said he couldn't, when he questioned it they checked another system and told him he could.

Be interesting to hear if the install goes OK, but by then the cabinet may show as enabled anyway.
