Full fibre gigs fast+ 5Gbps
Hi
I had full fibre Gigafast 900 installed in the summer and I want to upgrade to a faster full fibre Gigafast+ 5Gbps but I read after going to the final screen before ordering that a engineer would have to come out.
why would this be if I already have Full fibre installed?

You would potentially need a new Ont to support the higher speeds and I think cityfibre also want to sent and engineer check it is working correctly

Re: Full fibre gigs fast+ 5Gbps
The 2.5Gbs and 5Gbs speed bands can only arrive over CityFibre infrastructure, so if your current FTTP is delivered over an Openreach circuit then you'd require a whole new optical cable plumbed into the property.
