Have a look at this page. (It could do with a bit of updating but covers the basics. You get an OR modem, to be placed close to the master socket, but the master can be moved. The router can be as far away as you like, up to 100 metres). Then ask about anything arising in your particular case smile

I believe weekend appointments are available to all ISPs from Openreach, but I don't know which ISPs will arrange them. Evenings I haven't heard of.

Ordered BT Infinity Option 2 earlier laugh

Phoned them up as the website wasn't clear if we could keep our number or not, but they said we could. Set engineer date for 5th March laugh

BT Engineer has just been and setup the fibre, little snag with the phone not working so he had to pop back to the exchange, but managed to get it fixed. All in all it only took about 45 minutes to get everything up and running.

Blown away by the speed considering I was only getting 3.5Mbps before on ADSL.
