IDNet Help / Re: FTTP New Installation Process
« Last post by Simon on Apr 12, 2024, 10:54:16 »A development! Well, kind of.
Another pair of guys have just been out, to reassess for tomorrow's dig. In fact, they seem to have managed to get further than the other guys and have said the 'blockage' is probably just congestion and getting around a T point in the existing ducting. So, I'm hoping they won't have to dig up the lawn after all.
Further, the guy said they could probably fit some sort of data gizmo to the existing wiring in the outside cupboard downstairs, as apparently there is already Gigabit data cabling there. This would then feed to a gizmo upstairs and there wouldn't be any need for drilling through. In theory.
I asked if that's what they could definitely do, and he said it depends who comes out to do the internal stuff. But I've got this guy's phone number so he said to call him if there's a problem and he would advise the internal installers.
