Nope, its definitely FTTN. > Our power is underground Ours isnt in this particular part of the town. > with home power supply conneted > through base of Street Light Pole. The part of the town that does have underground power has green pillar things which are square roughly every second house. Not that high, about 300mm > The Same power source for Node. Yeah, but given we have overhead mains in my street, there should be some obvious connection to that and there isnt. Tho come to think of it, they did have a bucket truck at the pole mounted big transformer across the road from the node. I spose they likely did mole it under the road and its powered from there. Must have a close look at the pole the transformer is on, it should be visible up that pole if that's how its powered.
