Just because ---- openreach, sky , talk talk etc
Because l am curious nothing more . Understand that internet , other that virgin and like providers. Come to your property via openreach line. At what point does it actually become under the control of the provider . Thinking it goes to local exchange , still openreach or do they all have there own kit? Is it switched out at that point :dunce:. Thinking gas electric etc

Most internet providers on the UK use the Openreach network. As far as I am aware only cable companies do not

Hell of a lot of lines all sorts of things can go wrong . Same thing could be said of a virgin media user.

The best one (most independent one) is where the provider simply uses the cable from the exchange to the property (be that copper/fibre or a mixture of both), with everything else being broadband providers. The equipment in the exchange (DSLAM), the backhaul core network etc. It is very possible for one provider to provide a better service over the OpenReach network than another. The only thing guaranteed to be the same for all is the cable distance and the limitations around that. Things like the contention ratio, or if there is a cable damage, issue on the backhaul network, the vendor equipment (ie, who manufactures the DSLAM, some are better than others) All that said, in regards to speed on OpenReach, you’ll pretty much get the same from anyone when it works. Reliability, customer service etc can vary……..a lot. Especially “reliability”. |

FTTC does not have a DSLM in the exchange, that is ADSL and would be an LLU exchange.
FTTC has an SVLAN in the exchange that routes traffic to the relevant ISP for them to further route it via thair network. That said a lot of ISP's networks are via Openreach leased firbre optic lines thanks to Colossus. https://www.cableforum.uk/board/atta...9&d=1647985506 |

If you want to know if your internet supplier goes via Openreach or their own equipment/network just do a tracert to bbc.co.uk and check the IP addys. |

The handover now occurs at the headend which may/may not be the exchange in the local area (LLU was local loop unbundling). It will still continue via the Openreach fibre network unless the provider has run thier own fibre opric line (doubtful) to the headend. ( I should imagime they would lease an Openreach FO line) That said, Openreach have plenty of what is refered to as "Dark fibre" for a number of years. Add to that the testing of XPON on their network means symetrical speeds are attainable on the existing network. |
