I live in the east of Norwich, and my road got a g.fast pod installed about 2 months ago.
I�ve been checking the BT checker regularly to see when it would be active, but today I�ve noticed the pod has been completely removed!
Has this happened to anyone else? If so, do you know what the reason was?
Thanks

They have considerably scaled back their G.Fast plans in favour of FTTP.
I've only seen 1 other G.Fast pod removed.
OpenReach didn't give a reason why it was removed, simply replying that there are no plans to deploy G.Fast from that cabinet.
I would guess that any enquiry you made about it would get a similar response.

I�m hoping my road will have FTTP installed instead, but I guess you never know with Openreach.
It would make sense though as it�s quite a long road.

Hi
Do you mean the checker is no longer showing G.Fast stats, or that the actual physical pod has been taken away?

The checker was never showing g.fast stats for some reason.
The physical pod has gone from the cabinet.
Openreach replaced our cabinet for a new one before putting the pod on as well.
Surely they wouldn�t replace the cabinet for nothing?

What does the checker show for your FTTC estimates? If those aren't high enough to suggest G.Fast would be a benefit to you it wouldn't show G.Fast.
My broadband basic info/help site - www.robertos.me.uk. Domains, site and mail hosting - Tsohost.
Connection - Three 4G, tbb tests normally 35-45Mpbs down, 65Mbps off-peak, 9-24 up.

It shows 80-66.1 down and 20-19 up
I currently get speeds of about 67Mbps.

Should have been good enough. Maybe the other suggestion, that FTTP may come instead, is a possibility.

Hope Openreach will do the same removed g.fast pod from my cabinet 8 sooner or later for the better. Roll on FTTP. I do believe there will be nationwide FTTP by 2025 for all of us in UK.

Maybe no ones order g.fast! So, they removed it off
