From a personal perspective, I can't get enthusiastic about G.fast as the length of the copper wire to the cabinet becomes even more important. As my nearest cabinet is over 400 metres from my house, I won't get particularly fast broadband even if a G.fast extension pod gets attached to the cabinet.
