The outage only affected those customers served by pieces of the broadband infrastructure that have been “unbundled” from the underlying network in BT’s phone exchanges.
Orange customers served solely by BT’s infrastructure did not suffer any outage.
Unbundling is designed to allow BT’s competitors to tailor their services to customers by offering different features from BT’s wholesale offering.
Orange has around one million broadband customers, with 10%, or 100,000, served by unbundled infrastructure.
