Cheerful Spring wrote: » FTTH to the exchange, is the plan isn't it? Lot of those places are connected to the exchange already getting 70meg. I live near some of areas getting FTTH winter 2016.

I thought it must be a mistake so I've checked 5-6 numbers in the general area and they are all reporting the very same thing.. The best currently in that area is a 3MB ADSL connection with 1-2MB actual speeds.. Can this be correct? Surely they all wouldn't be wrong in the database?

Cheerful Spring wrote: » Houses connected to the exchange can they all get this? The blue lines are just following roads as far i can tell. My house is not near a road with the blue line, but i am connected to the exchange, and due for the 70 mb upgrade this summer now.

The company says that it will connect 100,000 homes and businesses in rural and regional locations across all 26 counties over the next 12 months. It says that the service will be a fibre broadband product that delivers 1Gbs, equivalent to 1,000Mbs. Here is a list of the rural locations, by county, and the number of houses/businesses to be covered as part of the initial 100,000-home fibre rollout:Full List and number of premisesCourtesy: independent.ie

Gonzo wrote: » Im not 100% sure yet! but it is looking good! The checker shouldnt really say available in the area when it clearly isn't yet! It should say something like 'Good News Fibre Extreme will be available in your area Autumn/Winter 2016'. I would be happier if it said something like that as to me the current message still reads like a database error. Hopefully they will update the map soon showing which blue lines are in the plan for this year. Each location listed in today's papers probably includes all the blue lines that connect out of the exchange.
rob808 wrote: » well for me it say of Eir Extreme it just say eir fibre aviable in your area but your not connected.Gonzo your definitely getting FTTH your lucky I'm at the end blue so I'm not sure I'm getting it killing me not knowing wish they had away of knowing other than the blue lines.
