BT Infinity. 365Drills are getting it on Christmas Eve...

[Deleted member 1779]

Well between 8am and 1pm on Christmas Eve I am getting BT Infinity

(Broadband in an instant)

They are laying a brand new fibre optic cable down my road for me and connecting it to the house.

A crazy thing is the BT phone lines are NOT going to be on the fibre optic so they stay on the old rubbish copper wires. (Have had trouble in the past with wet wires)

So we will see if our BT guy is full of festive cheer and lays the cable.....

Good to see it working, I'm looking forward to mine being installed on the 13th, as i've been struggling with my 1mb broadband for far too long.

LOL, I remember upgrading to 1mb from the old 56k dial up modem, I thought it was lightning fast lol

Same, have been with them for years. Always get what I pay for, and so far zero problems at all. Cable is def the way forward. Well done BT, we need the competition!
