Thanks, but that page is not correct. Most of the providers listed, don't offer g.fast any more.

Hi,

Sorry if this has been asked recently, I have searched and not found anything.

Does anyone know which ISPs currently supply g.fast? My location only has g.fast (no FTTP available) All roads in a circle around mine have FTTP.

Thanks


I was in a similar boat 2 years ago, I went with TalkTalk as they offered a service with no connection fee, but a 24 month contract.

CJT.

Currently on TalkTalk Fibre 150 (G.Fast) - Moving to Aquiss FTTP 500!

Previously on NOW TV Broadband up to 38 Mbps, then BT Broadband up to 80Mbps, then Pluse8 Broadband up to 80 Mbps, then Hyperoptic 100Mbps.

Would be helpful if you could supply a postcode.

In your situation I'd pick a 24 month broadband only deal from Virgin Media and hope that something happens in that period regarding FTTP availability.

You must be living right next to the cabinet, to get a 330M minimum speed on an impacted line, and 330M handback threshold.

You'll certainly have to pay more for G.Fast from the likes of Cerberus, and for many people I'd say it wasn't worth the hassle of a flakey service, but in your case it looks like it should be solid.

Agree he get the 330/50 maximum sync no doubt as he live much closer to the cabinet as G.fast (now called SoGfast) are very expensive but the cheapest for him to have SoGfast 160/30 with filesanctuary.net and ask for 12 months contract instead of 18 months because I can see his post code under Openreach Full Fibre is planning for next 12 months. (but he need to buy 2nd hand G.Fast modem from ebay)
So, his FTTP is on the way soon between now and end of 2026.

Openreach Fibre Checker say you are in planning, between now and end of 2026. More likely you will see FTTP available soon between now and next 12 months. I still got Openreach G.fast Modem MT992 ZTLink in very excellent condition in the box which I don't use it anymore (I used to have SoGfast 330/50 with UnchainedISP for 12 months) but went back to SoGEA 80/20 now with Aquiss ISP.
