There will probably not be any expansion in 8587 any time soon. According to Swisscom-Glas Fiber Map, high-speed Internet with up to 100 Mbit is available there. According to Swisscom, no expansion is currently planned. In any case, the bandwidth available at your address could be increased by Internet-Booster.
If you have 100 Mbps, there is no booster. These are the conditions for ordering a Bo0ster:
“The speed on your DSL Anschluss must be lower than 30 Mbit/s for a Vivo S or InOne home Internet S. For customers with Internet S, the DSL speed must be lower than 40 Mbit/s. For a Vivo M or InOne home Internet M, the speed must be lower than 70Mbit/s.”
If cooperation is found with a local EW or provider, then FTTH can certainly be implemented in the community.
Since FTTS has already been built, the existing mCAN will be replaced in the next 2-3 years and the Anschluss can then support 500mbps. Today you have 100mbps at your disposal, but why don’t you take advantage of it? Unfortunately, we see so many connections that we build on fiber optics and in the end the customers stay on the same small 40 or 50 subscriptions because they don’t need any more. These are high costs for development, which unfortunately do not add any added value compared to the copper line. Then economic factors come into play and expansion is often not worthwhile.

Why do I use the 50 line? Quite simply, I don’t like paying for something for which I don’t even get half of the network performance.
It’s just a shame that Swisscom tolerates a monopoly position of the local provider in the communities. If I had accepted the offer, Swisscom would no longer work for me.
Hello @Christian78
The house wiring is always the responsibility of the landlord and the owner.
Swisscom has a very fair offer for a BBR installation at your home.
This offer replaces the old I50ig cable with a U72 shielded cable from the UP to the socket.
The price includes travel and materials.
This means you are well prepared for the future.

Hello @Christian78
Unfortunately, there are still electricians who have not yet arrived in the modern era. And connect all telephone sockets in the apartment in a star shape.
Then place a nice clean RJ45 DSL socket in the fuse box. This means that the customer can then patch the cross connection into another room within their apartment. If the other rooms were also assigned correct LAN cabling with all 8 pins.
I see such hair-raising installations almost every week.
And when you talk to the electrician, he says he’s been doing it that way for 30 years and he won’t let anyone say anything. He is a qualified electrician…

What would be better then instead of star-shaped? In series? If the center of the star is cleverly placed, wouldn’t that be the ideal case?
Hello @kaetho
There is only one BBR installation: from the house connection directly to the router.
And I do this for our customers.
If the customer doesn’t want the router in the fuse box. And the customer can go to the UKV there, it is still a continuous line. And as @hed said, I had a grit installation that made my hair stand on end.
It doesn’t cost the builder much more if he pulls two cables from the fuse box into each room. But the tenant has a top installation.

Hello @kaetho
The violet cable is 4-wire, all routers except the CB2 can lead the telephone signal back on this.
You don’t have to change much about the house installation. Simply restore it to the old installation. Then all other telephone sockets for telephones should continue to work.
Unless you still have bells in your house and other large consumers, then it becomes more complex.

Analog devices can also be operated via LAN cable. Just patch it properly. And no switch in between for Analogtel 😉.
When it comes to installation, I haven’t differentiated between telephone lines and LAN lines for a long time. Everything for me is built on a cable. And from the central point in the house (in my basement) I go to all the RJ45 sockets in a star shape.
It’s nice if you can do that.
In our single-family home there is exactly one thin pipe as a pseudo riser, which connects 4 sockets in a series (i.e. 1 per floor) from the basement to the attic room. On the ground floor and 1st floor there is one branch each to an additional socket.
Since I want as many devices as possible on the LAN and as few WLANs as possible, all that remains are switch cascades and lots of exposed cables on the floor.
Hello @Lori-77
I have an RJ45 socket in the basement where I can connect the router. From there, every room can also be equipped with Lan or Tel.
