£2000! Yikes, is that even legal? That could 20+ months of Internet service for an installation charge.

I mean picked from thin air, but if you're down some weird spur road and they have to put extra poles in to run the cable it's of that order of magnitude.

I'm thinking of getting it in the wilds of central London where I have an "Openreach Stop Sell order for traditional copper services" but no fiber or a date for getting that.

It's not as good as full fibre, but it's much better than copper.

It was like £50 for me, but a neighbour needs two extra telegraph poles installed before the cable can reach him, and he was quoted high hundreds or low thousands in pounds for the fibre installation.
