No illusion, it actually ticks boxes, which is all any large business or government needs to deem something a success.

Of course, and the product works, just the distance limits are a bit of a constraint.

….. and then some.

I’d take FTTP in an instant if it were available where I live.

My theory has alway been that having ordered a whole load of small DSLAMs to stick on telegraph poles or in last mile chambers, and discovering that this would cost more than FTTP, the most cost-effective solution is the one adopted.

Stick them in the bolt-on cabinet taking a fibre feed from the FTTC one, and use them up for a short-term as a way of getting better stats. PR aimed mainly at government, really.
