Hi all,
I have been a log time reader of ispreview but never joined, but needed to in order to ask about the connection in my area. I'm with Giganet using their FTTP and speeds are 1gbps down but only 100mbps up. Openreach installed this network around 2-3 years ago and there doesn't appear to be any news anywhere about when it will be symmetrical.
I'm curious to know why they wouldn't simply make it symmetrical, and whether there is a way to request this from my ISP (can they even do that or is it Openreach?), or what other ways there are to get a symmetrical connection in my area, as from my research all providers are stuck using Openreach's FTTP connection which has a limit of 100mbps across the board?
Thanks in advance.
