Fibre in Ramsgate

[Rayne]

Yeah saw it on whatsapp. Apparently they dug up the eskom cables and took the fibre too.

And I thought fibre has no value?

EDIT: Router turned green 19:06 looks like it's sorted.

Just spoke to a technician testing the fibre cable at the box outside. Asked him if Shelly Beach is still on target for going live end of November. He recons it may even be sooner! Now just to get FF to come install the ONT. Router from Afrihost ready and waiting...

@cavedog - Hope you can help

Guys did the install from Sunday to yesterday. Now 2 lights on the ONT - Power and Broadband but no service light. The technician keeps saying "I'll make it 3 now" but still showing 2 lights. Anyway FF or Afrihost can activate it?

Back to 5ms now.

 

[ronnie_94]

Now that we are halfway through to the 30 Nov live date for the rest without it changing.

Anyone optimistic?

 

[Penner]

Not really. Their beta coverage map no longer even mentions dates...

Still waiting for FF to even make contact to schedule an installation. They probably have a huge backlog of orders by now - even though I signed up the very first day they offered fibre packages in the area.

But it does look like they are trying hard - saw technicians repairing cables on Sunday afternoon near St Michael's.

 

[EnT@nGleD]

Holding thumbs. There is an installer staying at the self catering accommodation next door to me who says we will be going live in Margate by the end of the month.

 

[EnT@nGleD]

Would love to know why they left the area within the blue out when putting in the fibre, Unfortunately cannot get fibre at home because of this but can get fibre at the office.

The dates definitely do show still, last I got feedback there were 500+ installations logged already.
