Those of us who live in rural areas are awaiting the results of this trial with hope. According to the Digital Scotland website our exchange is expected to be upgraded between July 2015 and December 2015.... which would be great - but we all connect directly to the exchange. The only hope any of us have is this trial which a few months ago was being called Fibre to the Drop Point and now suddenly has a different name. BT clearly are not going to install street cabinets and re-route 300-400 phone lines. So FTTdp is our next best hope.
