Switching to Slky Broadband - How will installation happen

[EoinM1]

I've signed up to Sky Broadband from eir.

Will I get the router in the post, or will an engineer come to the house.

Your router will be sent out to be with you up until the day before activation

If a first time FTTP installation is involved then installer attendance is required.

If it's in the UK, putting the address into the BT Wholesale Availability Checker should indicate which broadband provisioning type is applicable.

It's the table and the two text lines below it which are most useful.

Remove any personal information (such as the address itself) if you post an image.

Thanks. I'm not in the UK.

Ah, in the Republic of Ireland things are rather different, but FTTP still requires attendance if an optical connection isn't already in place.

I don't know if it's the same over there, but in the UK the presumption is that FTTP will be used if the wider scale infrastructure is in the area.
