Looking at there 'Symmetrical Speeds' (same Speed Up & Down ) on there website I would say there own.

Edit , Just sent them an email because I am interested.


See above, definitely their own. they are working like mad to get everything sorted, lots of delays so people are getting a bit frustrated. Once they get the service they will realise it was worth the wait and can say goodbye to their naff FTTC/Broadband connections!

Seems it went on sale a little early, should probably have let the engineers finish their surveys first! As they find blocked ducting, or none at all, they then have to apply for planning from the council and give 2 weeks' notice to do the work.

It is moving though, they are in the area constantly and working like mad.

Can't wait!

For reference they seem to be providing ADTRAN 621i ONT's (certainly for the residential service) and the routers are Eero Pro's.

Doesn't surprise me at all given how long it took openreach to clear the blockages when installing FTTPoD for me. Unfortunately, on older estates it is to be expected.
Just wait until people realise trenches will need to be dug to get the fibre into the house.

Yep! They have plans from BT who done the work years ago, the plans aren't exactly matching what they are finding. So digging all over!

They can rebuild my whole house if it means I can get 1000/1000 FTTP!!

Digging starts on Thursday in the street, expected to last 2 days then I will be connected. Even left them some duct to use as I just had a drive laid!

Busy digging up the bottom of my street as we speak, working their way up. One permit at a time, about 90metres per permit (3 days' worth!) so not long now.

I can literally see them straight out of my front window...it's torture waiting ha!

Good luck. I've signed up with them as showing interest. Wonder if they will ever come to my area.

Mine was due to be installed today, but it's been delayed, again. I feel like they have underestimated the work involved.

This time I've had an email from the CEO offering a free month for every month I'm delayed, however it doesn't state is this going to be back dated to my original installation date, not a great start....

I feel like now it's gonna be 2021 before I get it.

Have they said how long? They definitely have underestimated the work. I think (rightly or wrongly) what they have done was gone off the plans that BT gave them, showing where the underground ducts were etc.

They even showed me some plans, showing were duct should have been...then showed me on their detector, nothing there!

This has caused them a massive headache, cos what should have been mainly just feeding the fibre through existing ducting, has turned into mainly needing to dig and lay new duct to feed the fibre through. Then each time they do this, there’s planning permission needed (think they are fast tracked mind?)

What they do appear to have done, is what their customer service manager said and that’s stop accepting new orders for now, so they can clear the backlog for everyone who has already signed up.

Keep an eye on one.network for your area, showing next two weeks and. Next 3 months (signup for free to show this)

Hope its sorted soon!
