Re: New Build in SE13 5FN


[re: MrSaffron] [link to this post]
 
I sent them an email to confirm and just got a reply 33 minutes later with the yes.

It's a three month trial for free, so now it's the £35 or £60 options for 150Mb/s or 1Gb/s which needs some thought.

The other was in the wrong place, it's the same builder for all the buildings but some of them are managed by a different group which is a partner of Hyperoptic.

If it is 21 stories which floor you are on may have an effect!.

Hyperoptic often run Fibre to the 'comms room' and Ethernet around the building. If this is how this has been done the distance from the comms room may have an effect..(There may be more than one comms room in a 21 story building.

Hopefully as the building is new, they have fibred all the flats.

As all flats will have to use the same provider, backhaul may also come into play when the building is completely occupied, 1 Gb backhaul won't be enough but 10Gb will cope easily..

Media converters are spaced such that the Ethernet cable run is not a limitation when Hyperoptic deploy to a building

I've had my first visit to the property and it already has a powered up and wired in Hyperoptic router, so I will place an order with them around when the completion happens.

It was funny that I was informed that I would have to speak to BT for internet which looking at the Hyperoptic router. Openreach got back to me after 28 days to say no FTTP cabinets are nearby but whole floors are missing from the building in their database.

That is officially a result smile

I'm currently waiting on Hyperoptic to go into another site I work at. They've already done the building survey. It's less critical because Openreach FTTP is already up and running but the higher upload on Hyperoptic would be nice. Coincidentally, the postcode also ends 5FN

I just noticed this thread, and was interested to learn your postcode is served by the Lee Green exchange (for Openreach). If it's the development I am thinking of that's quite a distance from the Exchange.

Luckily you appear to be getting Hyperoptic!
