Indeed, there's very little fibre in the UK. VDSL (DSL in that list) is being sold as fibre, and cable (cable in that list) is being sold as fibre, but cruicially, are not fibre.
Very few even vaguely close to fibre-like services (e.g. Hyperoptic) in the UK
- sgt101 10y agoI have 330mbs fttp in the UK, and I live in the countryside. 2% have fttp cover now, relatively few take it though. There are very few use cases right now, I had 12mbs vdsl before, and I hardly notice that there is a difference to be honest, although my wife is a photographer and the high speed upload is a god send for her.
- raesene6 10y agoIs that the FTTP on demand product? I've asked BT about that one and it looks like it's select exchanges only (even after FTTC has been rolled out), which is a shame as I'd happily pay for it. The only "superfast" option I've got at the moment is a full leased line, whcih isn't a viable prospect for residential Internet..
- sgt101 10y agoNo, I got it because of BDUK. I'm on a long leg to a hamlet, which makes fttc difficult (dslam is expensive and you have to run the fibre almost all the way in any case). Then it was option 4 infinity. In your case have you looked to an Openreach community build or Gigaclear?
