Cabinet details now available

If and when we get to see any of BT's "superfast" broadband using fibre connections to street cabinets (FTTC) it will be of interest to know which cabinet you are connected to, as not all are enabled by default. You may also find you don't connect via a cabinet at all, which rules out the copper based FTTC service but there may be other options coming along.

BT Wholesale's availability checker will now tell you what cabinet you are on, as shown by the result below for a house on London Road, Wansford :-


This was a learning experience for me, as I hadn't noticed any cabinets in Wansford itself. Off to Google streetview to have a look.....
