Love to know where they get their info. When I use the checker it correctly identifies the cabinet but doesn't give any data for FTTC. I had to write to btopenreach to get bad news

I submitted my MAC to Plusnet on the 4th and got an install date on the morning of the 16th. I really wanted an afternoon slot but the earliest available was the 23rd. I wonder what make of modem I'll get? Would quite like to be able to unlock it for stats.

ah that's a distinct possibility, will check it out


I live on green close just near to the community college. So that cabinet could very well be it.

So my install was completed this morning. Think it took about 40 minutes total, which included the guy from Kelly climbing into the loft and rewiring things so that he could fit a proper master socket(which apparently I didn't have). The modem supplied was an ECI V-2FUb/r Rev B. As for speed the checker had estimated 59Mb, but speed tests are currently giving me around 70Mb - don't know if they'll stay that high in the long run but it's not a bad start.

Good to hear it went well, received a couple of reminders this morning for my install on Friday so fingers crossed
What you going to do about your modem? You unlocking it?

Not sure, this modem seems to be less hacker friendly than others.
