This here new fangled broadband is about to splutter into life on our rural exchange. When you go to the BT site and do a line check the following response is received:
Our initial test on your line indicates that you may be able to have Broadband from BT with speeds up to 512Kb, which is up to 10 times faster than dial-up. At the moment, your telephone line is unable to support our 2Mb speed broadband package. Also, due to the length of your line, an engineer visit may be required to set up your broadband service.
My Questions are:
Q1. Has anyone with with broadband up and running been in a similar position and successfully done a self install?
and/or
Q2. If an engineer is required, do you
have to use BT? and, what do they do?
Thanks in advance.
