G.Fast services use VDSL2 over FTTC lines to provide up to 330 mbps down and up to 50 mbps upstream.
You can check availability with an address (enter postcode, then select address): BT Wholesale G.Fast checker
Results will resemble the following, with the G.Fast results as described as...
...G.Fast Range A: This is the fastest estimated "speed" available to the property
...G.Fast Range B: This is the slowest estimated "speed" available to the property
Note: "speed" is the low-level sync speed, not the actual IP throughput (which is a contended service, just like FTTC)
"Available": presently (Jan-2018) we advise submitting a G.Fast order manually, even if the status shows "amber"
