I get a good 78Mb out of mine, the cabinet is about 2 minutes walk down
the road.

As others have said, it's just a face plate swap and a small modem to be
installed, you can connect out of the back of this into your structured
cabling and then away you go.

Should be done in 30 minutes (less if you don't make the installer a mug
of tea!)

If you can, then you must!  They also install an interstitial
plate (or they did with mine) which makes the master socket a bit
thicker than usual.  In that that output from the VDSL modem is
ethernet the master socket needs to be close to your router/switch
or you need hidden data wiring.  My BT engineer moved my master
socket to be the extension in the study which was much more
convenient - it entailed a bit of crimping behind the other 2
sockets but nothing cosmetic.  No down time as I recall - may
have
been an hour or two.<br>
Speed and reliability are amazing, I would recommend it without
hesitation.   <br>
Go for it!<br>
Tim.
