In Midgham, both Midgham and Woolhampton were originally on phase 1 to go live in Sep 2015 but this was changed in May/June when the Gigaclear contract was signed. Many areas on the Woolhampton exchange are already on but Woolhampton and Midgham are not according to the Superfast Berkshire Map. What seems odd is that the exchange is in Woolhampton but it is not part of the Phase one roll out even though there is a new cabinet outside the exchange. The Midgham cabinet had space around it cleared to add the new cabinet but it was never put in.

are you referring to cab 6 or new cab outside the exchange -- cab 12 in midham

woolaton 12 in Midgam is live and has been for 10th august 2015

Most of Midgham Village and Woolhampton are on P6 which has been postponed for some unknown reason.

If it's cab 6 then of no use to Midgeham, too far for those there to benefit from FTTC.

cab 6 not enabled -- cab 12 is the new EO vcab in midgham so which are you served of

assume cab 6 not good value for money for BDUK -- community could co fund it them selves with openreach is they wanted -- see openreach faq not on a plan

Hi,

I've recently moved onto a new development in Woodley. Connected to a new cabinet number 30 on the Woodley Exchange. I've only moved about 200m and had FTTC at my previous house (FTTP on Demand also available) so pretty disappointed to find that Openreach have not extended fibre to this new estate despite it having 500+ new properties over the next few years. The fibre enabled cabinets are very close so it seemed like it would have been very easy to install. What's the best way to try and push for this in the future? I work for the developer so have more access to ask technical questions than many other residents.

Thanks,

Don't blame BT but rather the developer since it appears they failed to liaise with BT and make the necessary arrangements. BT's commercial roll-out was primarily planned and based on plant that was in situ 5 or more years ago. For more recent developments the responsibility lies with the developer to arrange matters with BT. It would appear that they only arranged for basic phone lines and omitted to consider broadband. I would strongly urge you and your new neighbours to lobby the developer.

is there a new copper box at entrance to development -- if so the developer only a voice conversation with openreach

whos the developer ?
