Full fibre installation via box from another provider?
I live in a downstairs appartment with a full sky package. My upstairs neighbour wants to install Full Fibre via vodaphone. They want to replace my internet connection with an external vodaphone box/wires. If I go with full fibre can sky install via the new vodaphone box?

Re: Full fibre installation via box from another provider?
@Birdie111 thst is not how full fibre works it is the network operator who installs a new line and fits an ONT unit in each flat it would be very rare that two addresses would share single connection but it is technically possible .It would be very unusual for your existing line to be affected by fitting fibre for another flat so I suspect your neighbour is confused..
Vodafone use both Openreach and City Fibre as do Sky if yourcaddress has access to fibre it may be worth asking Sky to upgrade your line which normally is free of charge.

Re: Full fibre installation via box from another provider?
They are two separate apartments. I have a grey box on the outside wall where the landline enters. My neighbour wants to replace the box and run full fibre through the box and up my outside wall to his apartment.
If I agree would Sky be able to upgrade me to full fibre through the new box?
Many thanks for replying.
