If poster is 1km from the green street cab it is to be expected

Google maps may let you find cab 17 but given the maps can be years out of date do not rely on it to find fttc cab

Physically should there be a couple of cabs at the the location? Or could there be just one.

There should be two but, as suggested, there may well only be one visible on Google Maps.

There looks to be only one cab and its of the "old" sort.....probably not on Fibre yet then?

But if the checker says it's available there must be. It needn't be right next to it, could be 50m or so away (maybe more, I can't remember).

Aye ok.
Found an actual number to put in (the local school), http://www.dslchecker.bt.com/ states fibre is available at 50Mbps and from the same cab for the school.
Is this checker known to be inaccurate given the phone number?

I will have a scout about for another cab in the daylight.

In reply to a post by Justo:
No the infinity website is hopelessly in-accurate.

For my house number and postcode (not with BT) it says fibre is coming soon - interesting considering I've had it for well over 18 months!!


Just because you have FTTC doesn't mean the result is inaccurate, did you consider the cabinet may be full???

They may be scheduled to install another cabinet or more line cards.
