    BT are performing "Simultaneous Upgrades" which will affect all BT ADSL, VDSL and FTTP services during the early hours of February 12th. It is disappointing that this work is a multi-site activity as we have multiple links to BT in multiple datacentres so as to prevent outages when BT have work to do.

    They say:

    Start: 2025-02-12 00:01. We're simultaneously upgrading some 21C network software across multiple sites. The PW window is from 00:01 until 07:00, and we will start at 00:01 with non-disruptive pre-checks. From 01:00 we will start to re-boot the devices to the new version of code. This will cause an outage to all customers of up to 15 minutes whilst the device restarts. However, if roll-back is required, the outage could exceed 1hr. All work will be complete by 07:00.

    In practice, we expect customers with BT provided connections to drop and reconnect a couple of times in the early hours of February 12th.
