    The fibre is installed. The bad news is the speeds are closer to 40/20, than the 80/20 promised, but it's early days.

        @bazzacollins It's takes a while for the photons to settle in the cabinet. Give it a week or so. http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/3669548374 …

        @bazzacollins very similar to what we got in the end. Turns out we have aluminium cables to the cabinet instead of copper :(

        @bazzacollins Did you ask the OR engineer what the remaining capacity in the cab was. The biggest support about 256 connections.

        @bazzacollins @mrcjmartin 40/20 is still reasonable.

        @bazzacollins - From my experience it's unusual for BT to deliver significantly less than they promise. My installation was higher.
