Posted August 29, 2015 I went from 7-9 mbps to 60 mbps during the fiber upgrade. Honestly after having it for just over a month I couldn't go back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted August 29, 2015 I have FTTC. It's very hard to get FTTP in the UK, unfortunately. Sitting at 40/10 right now, but will be upgrading the plan soon as the line can support 70/20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted August 29, 2015 17 mbps isn't really measly, most people on copper have an average download speed of about ~6-7 mbps. Unless you are constantly downloading, you probably won't notice the upgrade to fibre (40mbps). 17 mbps is plenty for streaming right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted August 29, 2015 I do. Fibre has been rolled out pretty aggressively some places in Denmark, and luckily, I am in one of those areas.

Posted August 29, 2015 We have one of our isp's digged a hole and installed some small pipe in there for fiber the pipe is going 3 meters from our house so we'll probably going to get an offer soon.

Posted August 29, 2015 I mean its marketed as 17 its about 13 and the worst part is 0.80 mbps upload speed according to my Xbox If that is on a wired connection, then it is shockingly bad. However If you are using the xbox wireless adapter, then it's understandable. I recently switched to fibre because I often download/upload large files. I save quite a bit of time, but I was only on 7 down / 1 up beforehand. For streaming 1080p videos, the upgrade made no difference, I only notice the difference when streaming 4K. Also most of the uk isps give better wireless router to their fibre customers (5Ghz, QoS, more ethernet port and usb ports ...etc), so if you are in a densely populated area that should be helpful.

Unless you are constantly downloading, you probably won't notice the upgrade to fibre (40mbps). 17 mbps is plenty for streaming right? you wont notice 17 to 40.... youre very very wrong. this is with bt in the uk, luckily for me the cabinet isnt far and im connected at 80 down 20 up with my line being able to support just over 80, that was a lucky escape.
