To get fibre optic right up to the house is a lot more expensive.
I watch Skygo on my PC a lot and even at 10mb download the picture is perfect and no buffering.
That's no help to your problem though is it Margaret.
I thought it was just a case of resetting the hub and using the password on the bottom, then going into hub settings and disabling WiFi leaving the Ethernet cable connected.
I have no idea where the BT cabinet is near me, because I haven't been outside since I moved here last July (health problems). I did notice a slight improvement in page loading time when I switched to Infinity. Down here at the bottom end of Clayton I am a long way from the exchange and amongst an estate full of families. I do somtimes get buffering when the local kids get home from school and switch on. Last time I checked my speed it was 'good'
