Have you considered a suitable router that you may have or need for Aquiss Pure Fibre 1000 FTTP?

Yes thanks, I have my own router which is more than capable to handle a 1Gig line including my NIC on PC.

Router setup is very straight forward for an Aquiss Openreach FTTP connection. You just need to use PPPoE, a username and password.

I use an old Billion router for Aquiss Openreach FTTP and I've had no breaks in the internet connection for months!

No mention of Aquiss.net on their ‘partner’ list.

I use an Amazon Eero 6 router and that works just fine as well. Just entered the details and it connected.

different technology stack, they don't do city fibre only openreach.

I'll probably have to replace the Billion router when dear old PSTN is ceased though...

Can anyone answer is Aquiss on CityFibre or Openreach

We actually list this directly on our sales pages:

Are Aquiss FTTP packages based on the Openreach network?
Yes. We deploy our FTTP (Fibre to the Premises) packages across the Openreach network.

Its a shame you couldn't offering SoGfast for someone who can't get FTTP but do have G.fast!

Thank you, I have just signed up. Hoping for a seamless and stable service like I have on BT.

Signing up on a weekend, I am guessing I will see no movement or progression of my order until Monday? do I need to inform BT of anything or will as part of the migration terminate that service?

You've made a good choice, if you have any questions just give them a call or raise a support ticket, they are very quick with replies and you can see they even watch this forum.

Tell us how you get on!

At this stage don't inform BT of anything. One course of action, that is often recommended, is to keep an active existing xDSL connection (copper line) together with a new fibre installation (FTTP). This will rule out any potential loss of an internet connection if there should be any unforeseen issues with FTTP. Once you are happy with the new FTTP service then you can cease the BT service - there shouldn't be any more than approx month of overlap.

If you do decide to do it this way ensure that the fibre installer is aware that you want to keep the copper line active, i.e. not disconnect the active copper line to the NTE5 master socket. She/he will fit an ONT for the fibre optic cable separately in a location that will be suitable within the property.
