As a side note to this discussion (and vaguely related to FTTC as a
replacement for EFM), I see a lot of operators are already selling FTTC
as "uncontended". Can FTTC really be claimed as uncontended when
operators have zero control or monitoring of the fibre circuit from the
exchange to the cabinet (which is only going to become more congested
over time)? This is where I still feel EFM has a little advantage.
Cheers,
Robin.

I wonder if there's a way to do it at the Ethernet level (when buying
GEA instead of via WBC/L2TP)? Openreach handoff raw FTTx circuits to
us as a VLAN on an interconnect in each exchange, and we get similar
delivery on our interconnects with BTWholesale and TalkTalk for
accessing exchanges we don't have a presence in ourselves.
This sounds really mucky; but has anyone thought of EVC bonding?
Something like a LAG but with VLANs instead of physical ports. This
could supersede the likes of EFM if done right.

are there any ISPs planning to offer FTTC circuit bonding?
I would guess that if they can already do it with ADSL/ADSL2+ then it
must be possible with FTTC?
