ADSL2 and Recently Enabled Exchanges. A Question.

Sponge Bob · 2010-07-10 10:44:40

Can someone with access to the eircom wholesale database confirm whether ADSL2 products are available form the following exchanges. These are 24mbit Residential and 12/1 12/2 and 24/1 Business products. I am wondering whether certain exchanges are getting second hand ADSL1 gear from urban exchanges that got ADSL2 upgrades…

It was one of the exchanges with ADSL2+ from the original rollout as it (was) one of the biggest exchanges in Ireland. I'm not so sure about the Drogheda AEH (DAHA) exchange which probably serves up to a couple of thousand lines which were formerly covered by the DBCA exchange. But that's a small area of Drogheda.

eircom told me today that DBC12 is only ADSL1 and has not been upgraded to adsl2/2+

That list is from 2008 TBC, and thanks. I am interested in the most recent crop, those upgraded in 2010 in the main.

Does anybody have the latest eircom wholesale list where certain exchanges are marked with a * for adsl2 ????? PM it to me please. Thanks.

It may be that certain small recently enabled exchanges have very little backhaul and are therefore being constrained to ADSL1 offerings only ( up to 8mbits) . I am fact checking , that is all.

thanks for the info...got some sort of breakthrough myself too, eircom took an order to connect me to CLXA exchange, they said no problem, if it gets connected to CLXA it will reduce my line length by over 50%..

i am 1.7km from that exchange, I think if i get connected i will get 12-15mb?

cheers

has the Dunshaughlin exchange been upgraded to ADSL2+?
I havent heard anything about an upgrade to it but since this week Eircom 12mb options are now coming up for all Dunshaughlin numbers. Im wondering is this an error in their database or is it really now and ADSL2 exchange.
