Is this being provided directly from full fibre limited instead of one of the isps? If so how did you get 5gb speed from them and how much is it costing? Fibre hero’s are building in my village at the moment and I can’t wait for it to go live!
Hi Daniel the internet is being provided direct from Full Fibre but as a bespoke one off test they do not have any plans to launch a 5Gbps product as yet but of course May in the future. (Of course the more people that express an intrest in multi gig the sooner we may get it!) Once the test comes to an end I will be ordering a 900mbps service from one of the partner ISPs. Feel free to email me your details to info@fttppro.co.uk and I can keep track of the build in your area and when RFS find you a deal 👍
@@nsmmedia A shame you will not be able to keep the 5Gb service, but as you demonstrated with the speed tests, the utility of that connection is limited when you cannot max it out a lot of the time. I can definitely see it being useful if you were to provide hosting services for others, though.
Hi jglg The latency on the connection is usually between 9-11ms when pinging the gateway and Google and Cloudflare etc some services have higher latency due to the peering links.
@@nick21614 I suppose it depends on how the routing is all done 9-11ms is also what i get on an Openreach FTTP line at another address. I have seen people getting 1-2ms on Fibre usually living in London etc near the main POPs
@@nsmmedia It's probably the open network thing or maybe some government inspection of your data. I can get 10ms to servers 300miles away but 10ms local isnt the end of the world its still okay its just like cable.
@@nick21614 yeah It is more to do with the network setup as my traffic is routed to London which where i am up in Shropshire 9-11ms is standard. If i was being routed via say Manchester then it would be lower
Anything more than 500 is just not worth it in the U.K. right now because the content from us and asia are limited to sat speeds of about 150-200mbs you either need to be a business with multi user internet access or a host or mainly access just eu zone data
It all comes down to how many people are in your house and what your using the connection for. For a lot of people 100mbps is ample but others can benefit from say 1Gbps but multi gig is limited and only few services can benefit from such speeds. I have been able to get speeds over 200mbps to US based services.
I'm getting 1gig symmetrical, really looking forward to it.
I had no idea we were rolling out XGS pon! Lol no way!
You sure are! Did you see the cabinet tour video?
Ever find the speeds to vary wildly?
Yup they can do especially the upload speed see my more recent nperf testing video.
@@nsmmedia Strange, for me the download speed is like a yoyo.
thats not good I would report that to your ISP if you have not done so already!
If i wanted the same speeds as your getting in this video how much would it cost me ? How many figures £££ potentially?
For a multi gig residential FTTP service your talking £60-£100 per month take a look at my website fttppro.co.uk for more info
Also which companies do symmetrical fttp ?
Quite a few of the alt nets do.
Openreach does not (unless you pay for a leased line)
Virgin media does but only in new Nexfibre areas

Thanks for the info I have dropped you an email 👍🏻
@@nsmmedia have you tried to test it at 10gbps just for fun?

When it comes to downloading via browser have you tested using a download manager?
Outside of the likes of Steam not tried a dedicated download manger yet will test that and let you know the results 👍
why is your ping 19, it should be much lower with fibre internet?
Hi jglg The latency on the connection is usually between 9-11ms when pinging the gateway and Google and Cloudflare etc some services have higher latency due to the peering links.
@@nsmmedia 9 ms to the gateway it pretty high for fiber, that's what you'd expect with DOCSIS latency. 1-2 ms is common here.

How much did it cost you ?
Nothing as I’m testing it for them 👍
