[uknof] FTTC Wires Only

Hi All, There was a discussion here about the withdrawal of Openreach modems and the approvals of alternative hardware a few months ago. We're new to unbundling, and I'm having trouble getting Openreach to approve a modem at the moment so we can start a pilot. We're offered two routes; either
