It's not all that exciting..... like one of those wrap around cable tidy things.

We have FTTC but been having a few line issues. An Engineer was out today to sort it and in passing mentioned that he had seen some additional 'boxes' on the poles further along our road and it looked like FTTP was on its way (which would be great as we currently only get around 25Mpbs).

How can you tell if FTTP really is coming and what are the key steps prior to it actually getting to the house ?

Anywhere between 3 months and still waiting after 3 years. It depends on if your in fibre first, or bduk. Then also if your in a national park.These things alter the time from open reach saying an area will get Fttp and actually getting it. If you look at https://www.thinkbroadband.com/guides/fibre-fttc-ftt.... Note that some of the kit will vary and as time goes by, updates will occur.

Sounds like it can be fitted afterwards, if I'm thinking of the same wrap around cable tidy things as you

That's now happening here, fttc went in 2015 but it's a single cabinet village down here we get 10mbps down & 0.2 up sounds OK but it was unusable.

FTTP gear on the poles here but fibre is spooled up hanging from the foot pegs still supposed to be live by March according to the council.
