FTTC cabinet, Station Road, Little Bytham (update)

Some great news, if you live on Station Road, in Little Bytham. It looks like new FTTC cabinet is in the process of going live!

Now if, I do a search for phone number on Station Road, they are now listed using Cabinet 8, when before it was Cabinet 2, which is on the High Street.

The speed has only gone up to 14.4 Mbps, from 11.7 Mbps. But much, but it’s a start.

Once it’s fully live, we will do another post about it…
