Re: How Many Cabinets For Longmorn (NSLMN)


[re: deleted] [link to this post]
 
If you try http://www.dslchecker.bt.com/adsl/adslchecker.welcome that will give your cabinet number. What does it give for your Cab number and line speed?

Is there a cabinet up towards the end of Hallowood Road?

The cabinet that is live is cab 1 and is outside the exchange, so still 2.8km from you hence why https://www.btwholesale.com/includes/adsl/main.html is not showing FTTC availability (made a guess at where Troves was - more a farm house than a village)

new cabinets 2&3 I think will serve clusters to the south of Longmorn. Until everything is built hard to say for sure.

Are you sure you are on the Longmorn Exchange? Some parts of the area are served by Elgin and both use the 01343 dialling code.

Thanks for that.

Definitely says connected to Cabinet 1 of Longmorn Exchange.
ADSL Max - Up to 1 Mbps download speed! Wow!!!!

I haven't seen any cabinets on Hallowood road - must go for a wander and see

It is a bit more than a farmhouse!

More than 20 houses now!

Just had a look - definitely NO cabinets anywhere along Hallowood Road.

Only green things on the side of the road are dustbins! 😀 LOL

Can only go by what Google maps shows and could not find a village name, just a farm name.

In terms of cabinet 1 it is very close to this location on Google Maps which is a LONG way from you, hence why no FTTC speeds are showing as available. The long and short you are too far from the cabinet to benefit from FTTC.

I was just trying to picture it from teh last time I went through.

I have also had a look here: https://www.telecom-tariffs.co.uk/codelook.htm?xid=2...

Insert LONGMORN in the Locality Box and then click <Lookup Locality>

It will return a new screen with: Locality: Longmorn, Elgin, Morayshire All Post Codes All 5 Fibre Cabinets

Click on the <All 5 Fibre Cabinets> link and four green dots will appear, click on the Minus sign to zoom out and a further dot appears towards the top right just under Moss of Barmuckity. Hover over it and it actually says P1 ... zooming in puts the cabinet in the middle of the small estate at the top of Hallowood Road - as an approximation. It could be wrong and te BT checker for the postcode there says NO!

Very interesting!

I can't help wondering if this might be a 20 year vision! LOL

It is wrong, see the google link I posted, the premises there can get 60 to 80 Mbps from FTTC on cabinet 1
