Our records show the following FTTP network service information for these premises:- Single Dwelling Unit Residential UG partial Direct In Ground.

Not far from me, yeah Burn (MYBRN) is a small exchange only 300 odd premises on it they didn't enable cabinet 1 for FTTC probably due to the long lines that are connected to the cabinet like in Hirst Courtney, but im sure other people will tell me the exact reason why it got FTTP instead. Hope you enjoy the fast speeds while im stuck at 21mbps

Looks like you are in luck.

Will you get the expensive 330 package or go for the 40Mb cheap one. Will be good to see your speedtest if you get the high speed variant.

You will have to change user name to FTTPMax if you get 220 one!

Yeah will going thinkbroadband speed test soon when I moved there but don't know how long does it take for FTTP to activated once u placed an order with ISP. Going for 330/30 but sadly plusnet will not doing this anymore. I have to search for ISP who will do home FTTP 330/30.

Question to ask this does my current Billion 8800NL support FTTP? If not support this will OPenreach provided FTTP modem with wifi router?

No third party routers plug directly into the fibre itself, you MUST use an Openreach ONT and then take the Ethernet to what ever router you choose or ISP provides

Is that true someone saying that placed an order for FTTP is a nightmare with engineer as it sometimes take a month to installing after survey?

known some to take a year.. assuming there is no FTTP at the property already then 1 month from survey would be lucky

It all depends on how much of the infrastructure is in place when you move...

From point of order to final install, mine was about 3 weeks. Yours may be longer.
