    Not just a village problem, B1 postcode connected to the Central exchange which is down the road, along with 3/4 fibre street boxes outside the front door and the best they can do is 6 meg.

    Go figure.

    yep You can be in the middle of a city and not get BT fibre either.

    Kelvin College in the east end of Glasgow has a super duper backbone. The Community round about? Faff all and what there is, is poor. Communications poverty. (Although most of the web traffic in that area is mobile.)

    Where I currently live is classed as urban. I’m lucky if I get 2MB. My house in a rural lincs village,I had 16mb!!! bloody BT

    Our town went live last year but my cabinet only went live last month. The only slightly annoy part is that there’s 3 cabinets closer than the one I’m on so my speed isn’t as good as it could have been but still pleased with it.

    My village supposedly falls under the new “High Speed Yorkshire” programme and the exchange has been upgraded according to BT.

    However when I put my details into any of the ISP line checkers I only get 2MB maximum so it looks like everywhere in the village apart from my area is going to get it.

    Do the post code checker on the Openreach site (link from BT Infinity line checker). This will probably tell you more about the state of your exchange and your posibilities of getting fibre.
