Fibre 35 v fibre 150

trying2 — Mon, 13 Mar 2023 10:24:49 GMT

Cityfibre is now laid in our street .. Does fibre 150 come from the cityfibre ? or does it come through the existing copper wire .. If fibre 150 comes through existing copper wire will fibre 150 give better speed than my fibre 35.. which on a good day is 20Mbps.
Last time I recontracted I was told 35 fibre was the fastest i'd ever get due to copper wire and location and little point in going for higher ..
Question is : will I get better speed with fibre 150 if it's via copper wire , or not much better than my existing fibre 35?
contract ends soon .

Hi trying2,

City Fibre supply Fibre 150 over FTTP (fibre to the premises) so any speed restriction due to the length of the copper cable to your home wouldn't apply

Thanks... I'll try to find out if fibre is available now.. If not I won't go for the copper wire route ..
