Great Service for 400 mbps GigaClear Connection

Good Sales Team, Answered all my questions. Flawless installation outside and inside. When they installed the cable they took the same route as the telephone line from the telegraph pole to the house. Inside show them where I wanted and they just go on with it. No mess left behind after drilling through walls all vacuumed as it was being drilled. Only interesting part is GigaClear who installed the connection can not test the line after installation as they only have a router that connects to a GigaClear network. Some thought lacking there by GigaClear especially as they allow other companies to use there network. So all we could go on was the fibre box had the green light to say it was talking AOK to the other end. You would have thought they would have some way to test it before switching it on full to the Squirrell network. However, the router arrived next day and it just worked. So all was not lost. Well that was a big improvement from my old 49mbps ADSL to 400mbps fibre. I played with it for a day on the supplied Zyexel router to make sure the connection was working ok. The next day then removed the supplied router and put my old one back in as don't have time to reconfigure a new router. My old router was Draytek Vigor that has a failover Ethernet WAN connection. Confgured that rebooted and then pulled the ADSL plug out the wall. Within a few seconds it saw the ADSL had been lost and hey presto retrieved the Squirrel fixed IP from the fibre box and it just works. Fantastic. Teams video chatting is a bliss now. YouTube is constantly in HD 1080p without buffering. Even my poor ole trusty raspberry pi's which i thought were slow have suddenly come to life. Didn't realise just how slow the old ADSL line was making them run when they did an update. However, updating them now is no longer a task. Blink and you miss it. Really pleased so far with the squirrel internet gigaclear brown 400 mbps installation. Couldn't ask for more, great service thanks.
