Re: Why can't I get fibre?

I believe there is a DSLAM sidepod planned in few months time to add capacity


Thanks! I was able to locate Cabinet 28 earlier today, and it appears to already have a smaller cabinet (about half the size of the main cabinet) attached to the side. It looks brand new, and there are telltale offcuts of wire on the ground next to the cabinet, a probable sign of recent work. (No pictures, because the cabinet was immediately adjacent to a busy children's play park, and I didn't want to get my camera out around kids.) On the most recent Street View imagery (2018), Cabinet 28 is a rusty, ancient-looking thing - this has been completely replaced at some point since: https://goo.gl/maps/YBHixArSgGMZoTNk7

I'll have to keep an eye on the availability checker, to see if this extra side cabinet goes live at some point soon, given that to my untrained eye it appears that it's been built.

Does it? I was doing maybe 10 per day for one specific number for over a week plus some others, no issues with it, from a static IP.

Yeah. Checking different postcodes/addresses, after a while you either have to wait or open another tab...

Looks like this was correct, as Waiting List has now changed to Available and I've been able to place an order. All's well that ends well!
