Full Fibre Broadband

Full fibre availability

BT Openreach are rolling out full fibre broadband to the whole of Failand.

Check the status of your property at:

https://www.openreach.com/fibre-checker

It will say "Available now" or "We’ll be building in this area in the next year".

This will deliver speeds up to 1600Mbps via fibre all the way to your property (fibre to the premisses - FTTP).

The main advantage over Gigaclear is that you can use your existing ISP or any of your choice.

Advantages of Gigaclear are:

Gigaclear is available now to the whole of Failand (except part of Lower Failand).

Some Gigaclear packages are substantially cheaper eg:

Gigaclear £26/month for 469 Mbps

Zen (when available via BT full fibre) £42/month for 500 Mbps

Maximum upload speed for BT is 115 Mbps whereas Gigaclear upload speeds are same as download ie it is "synchronous".

Recent work by BT Openreach in Woodland Close looks to be ducting for fibre:
