BT Ultrafast (g.fast) is finally here. Woop woop !!!

[piggzy]

Been in trial for what seems like years but it is now up to order from BT on the link below or from a couple of other provider (only talk talk from what I could see)

Option 1 : Upto 150MB = £54.99
Option 2 : Upto 314MB = £59.99

I believe both offer ??? up. They are guaranteeing a minimum of 100MB and if you don't you can get £20 compo paid upto 4 times per year e.g every time it drops below.
Edit: Option 1 upload is 29MB and Option 2 49MB
The extra £5 is a no brainer.

Was involved in the very early stages of this years ago and still have peeps I know that work there.
The general rule is that if you are within 350M of your cabinet you should get full speed. Greater distances may cause lower speeds and distances over 500M are generally assumed you wont get better speeds using g.fast tech than the speeds you are already getting.

Not a lot of exchanges are enabled yet but now it is official the pods that they fit to the side of the PCP/Cabinet's are actually fitted fairly easily and quickly so with any luck rollout should speed up dramatically.

check out the link below to see if you can get it.

These speeds are achieved over FTTC and it actually is cheaper than FTTP. If you are an FTTP customer and cannot get this cheaper product I have heard if you phone and moan they will price match your FTTP product at the g.fast prices. (with a contract extension of course)

Edit: So what if this tech or something newer can be applied to the FTTP setup. What speeds are yet to come :-)
