I fitted my house out with Unifi gear (a couple of UAP-AC-PROs and USG-3), along with a Draytek 130 VDSL modem. Not necessarily the cheapest products available, but utterly worth it IMHO.
Full, strong coverage throughout the house and garden, and the only issue I've had in the past 18 months was with IPv6, and that's because I had misconfigured it.
Over here in Newhall, most of the building on North Chase were pre-cabled with Sky and TV/FM sockets on the wall, provided by a underground cabling system from a shared dish/Aerial system somewhere on the estate. We get a full-strength signal on all signals, and rarely get any jitter. VM never got a chance to run any cables, and it's just as well. I've been bitter since they killed off RedTV.
Sadly, the broadband is utter tosh, we're lucky to get 2Mb, probably because we're so far from the exchange at Sainsburys. If BT wanted to put in FTTC here, I'd supply them as much tea and bacon as they could handle, but they'd have trouble finding space for a cabinet, as there's barely enough room to park!
