R how long till I can expect to order? 3gig is there still a delay in install due to router shortages? Currently I use three 1gig unmanned switches, zen fritz box with fritz extender wifi mesh recommendations for 10gig switches wifi mesh
CF is currently rolling out in my area. They've run cables to the poles 07/09 and they've wired up black boxes 18/09 which they left mounted about 10ft about the ground. When I spoke the the guys pulling the fibre to the poles they said they were going to hand over the site in 4/6weeks (19/10 to 02/11). Received the first CF leaflet 26/09. https://bidb.uk/ shows the clearing blockages which only 1 seems between us and the Fibre cabinet. I know its a guess but how many weeks/months out do you think my street is from live?
I read somewhere on some forum that 3gig service were having install delays due to a shortage of modems, is that still the case?
Lastly in my house I use the Zen fritz box and bought a fritz repeater. It all works happily together and no drop outs (at the time reviews of other mesh networks all seemed temperamental). Is there something that works with the supplied router like the fritz or a soild alternative? I use two 1gig unmanned switches (each uses 3 ports to various PC's in the house). Looking for 10gig switches (to use the full 3gig /future proofing) seems the majority are 2x 10gig and mix of 1/2.5gig is there no equivalent of 4/5x 10gig?
Sorry for all the questions I'm just so excited to be getting out the the darkages of internet speed esp with kids and their hefty weekly fortnite patches.
