I'm sure this discussion occurred recently, but having trouble finding it. So can't see what the conclusion was.

As you say, it is very odd if a couple of huge CPs can do it and not the rest, when it isn't supposed to be available.

My broadband basic info/help site - www.robertos.me.uk | Domains,website and mail hosting - Tsohost.
Connection - Plusnet UnLim Fibre (FTTC). Sync ~ 59.4/14.4Mbps @ 600m. - BQM

It must be a "soft launch", checking there isn't a big incompatibility with the FTTC cabinets actually "in the field".

Not very soft, with only TT of the biggies missing.

Whatever is going on, it stinks to me smile

The EE BrightBox 2 would presumably also count. To Ofcom they still count as an ISP despite just reselling BTw and are fairly large.

Sky have been beta testing the SR102 in the field for a while now, I just missed out applying for the beta test program by a day. I guess it also acts as a sort of trial of the self install option.
