AthanasiusThis might be useful for other UK people on an FTTC broadband package who make zero use of the bundled landline telephone service.My ISP (Aquiss) recently announced a forthcoming £3 pcm price bump due to the retail cost of the service from OpenReach.In the same email they also pointed out that SoGEA is a thing, where you can have an FTTC broadband service without the associated landline service. Thus, you can save money by not paying for something you don't use.As I've not had a phone plugged into the landline for a couple of years now, and never received any useful call on it for years before that, I leapt at the chance to reduce my bill.In my case rather than going up by £3 pcm my bill will now go down by £8 pcm, so a saving of £11 pcm compared to what I would have paid after the price increase.So, even if your ISP hasn't said anything about this it might be worth asking them about migrating to SoGEA instead of the usual FTTC with bundled landline.There's more on the difference between SoGEA and normal FTTC service here: <a href="https://www.switchcraft.co.uk/broadband/types/what-is-sogea-broadband-everything-you-need-to-know/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.switchcraft.co.uk/broadband/types/what-is-sogea-broadband-everything-you-need-to-know/</a>Additionally, for anyone else on Aquiss, be aware that switching might involve changing IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. I'm still on addresses they lease from CityFibre, who are getting out of that business, so am being migrated to Aquiss's own pools as part of this change.<a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/UK" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#UK</a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/FTTC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#FTTC</a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/broadband" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#broadband</a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/landline" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#landline</a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/sogea" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#sogea</a>

Amiga4000TMy ISP has many SPF (single points of failure First start with terms FTTC FTTH (FTTP also) Check the wikipedia page.About 26hrs ago (exactly at 02:01) the following services of my ISP died all together in syncVOIP (phone voice) XDSL GSM LTE+. I noticed the warning my router gave & the gateway going red and dead. No calls were possible, since the GSM networks also died for me.How? FTTC we have FTTC small expensive boxes (1.30m 40cm 1.20m) besides the streets. Mine dropped itself hard along with wireless servers in my area. Why? Neglected maintanance. Result catastropic drop of ALL services for 2+hours!I went into comms survival mode (with my tranceivers) Those were fine of course. Why is there no second route to the servers when my main FTTC box fails? Greed & logistics. The ISP never told me what happened. A friend inside gave me some data. As a monopolist th ISP has too much technical power over us. There's a FTTH project running, which will at least drop the FTTC network boxes besides the roads. However that project should have been FTTH only. Instead they made a terrible mix of FTTH & FTTC. The mix was made with corruption in the background because the FTTC network is cheaper. Also when they put you on the FTTH network they still deliver absimal XDSL speeds.The provider has also made a mistake of putting the network FTTH above ground. So every time someone slams the telephone poles down that Network also goes down with all your communications. That means you will have no VoIP no Data, which means a total cut off from what could be a lifeline, when it comes down to the VoIP service, for which the phone providers on my continent still have to give 48 volts of DC power to the phone lines for a whole week after power utility has been cut off. They are forced to do so by Law of the Land.<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiber_to_the_x" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiber_to_the_x</a><a href="https://c.im/tags/Networking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Networking</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/FTTC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#FTTC</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/FTTH" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#FTTH</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/FTTP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#FTTP</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/OpenSource" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OpenSource</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/POSIX" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#POSIX</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/ClosedSource" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ClosedSource</a>

Leeuwarder Courant RSS[20:30] In Franeker herleven mooie tafeltennistijden, mede dankzij de inbreng van Duitser Felix. 'Ik waardeer dat ik waardering voel' Oude tijden herleven in tafeltennisbastion Franeker. De hoofdmacht van FTTC is met een bloedgang op weg naar de landelijke eerste divisie, op de kop af dertig jaar nadat dit een na hoogste niveau voor het laatst werd aangetikt.

BicycleBenIn the process of switching service away from <a href="https://mas.to/tags/BTBroadband" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#BTBroadband</a>. Pleased to see an equipment return programme where I can send my old router for refurbishment/recycling. But...Why can we not have open hardware compatible with all <a href="https://mas.to/tags/broadband" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#broadband</a> suppliers, negating the need for companies sending out new routers each time? Why can't there be something akin to SIM cards on mobile phones that can then allow any unlocked device to be used?Reduce, THEN reuse, THEN recycle.<a href="https://mas.to/tags/ReduceReuseRecycle" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ReduceReuseRecycle</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/FTTC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#FTTC</a>

BicycleBenOne for UK peeps: anyone got experience of <a href="https://mas.to/tags/NowBroadband" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#NowBroadband</a> for <a href="https://mas.to/tags/FTTC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#FTTC</a> broadband? It’s time to switch and their prices look good, along with a 12 month contract. Always a bit wary of online reviews which slate them (people love to moan), so looking for realistic opinions.I’ll be switching from <a href="https://mas.to/tags/BTBroadband" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#BTBroadband</a>, which has given solid performance - 71mbps down, 20mbps up. Am I likely to see a speed drop with a budget provider? Not too worried about WiFi performance - just the actual internet connection.
