I dont know about other people, obviously 1000/220 is better than 220/220 but I was just commenting that its market segmentation the reason they not doing 1000/1000.

They not even matching the 4:1 down/up ratio of FTTC.

But, are they matching the 4:1 ratio on FTTC? 16/2 is 8:1.

It has nothing to do with market segmentation, there is no demand for symmetrical speeds at consumer level.

The demand is coming from the downstream and we will see a greater split between the down/up ratio in the years to come.

As of today, 20 January, the Openreach price list shows:-


Up to 500Mbit/s/165Mbit/s 20/01/2017 Base installation 1158.00 Annual rental 1,392.00


All plus the same (unchanged) distance related charges and Vat.

The new products are not showing on native FTTP.

I want this one! 500/165 for my FTTPoD but where can I order it? As my isp Plusnet say NO.

I'd love to install one of these if I could find an ISP who will provide.

Spectrum internet in Cardiff do it.

I don't understand why there is no isp's aren't interesting on FTTPoD?

Maybe the same reason so few are interested in native FTTP.

But not in Telford.

Cost versus profit.
