I have a response from Giganet on their future FTTP offering which

They offer a "symmetrical" service with equal up/down guaranteed

guarantees 150 Mb/s each way, details here:

I though fibre gave you the full package speed?
They don't offer any form of 'phone service so it would be expensive
if you wanted a landline 'phone and FTTP.
Anybody here experienced that? If so what do you do?
I am on FTTH/FTTP and vodafone gave me an ONT (Optical Network
Terminator) and a Router.
I had a choice of 100/100, 500/500 and 900/900 service.
The router has a POTS socket on the back and so I connected taht house
phones.
Surprised at the low speed packages you are being offered... Are you
being offered a FTTC product (fibre to the cabinet) instead of FTTP/
FTTH (Fibre to the Home, Fibre to the premises) product?
I've just looked at giganet's website for my home address and I got
the following options:

P.P.S. Giganet don't do VOIP at the moment and they recommend Vonage or >Andrews and Arnold:
(the latter are actually very good for VOIP)

We've just moved from BT at about 70 Mbps to Community Fibre at 1,000 Mbps. Combined with a new state-of-the-art mobile phone the difference is astonishing. Downloads are all instant. We have a phone service (number duly ported) as well. Irritatingly, I bought a VOIP-capable phone a couple of years
ago (supposedly "future proofing"), but I don't think anyone at CF "support" knows who knows (someone must know) how to connect it up, so I have to use the
Grandstream phone adapter they supplied. It all works perfectly, but CF seem a
chaotic organisation so I do worry what would happen if I got a fault. Cheap as chips, though - half the price of the BT service.

Then simply think of it as a 150Mbps package, rather than 300Mbps, and
you'll get the full speed :-)
