Hi,
Thinking of taking out the EE Fibre Max 900 service (FTTP) but wish to know if EE block certain websites like BT, TalkTalk et al do? I was under the impression they do, but when i did a quick check using my EE mobile as an internet hotspot, nothing was blocked. Would appreciate clarification on this.
Also I understand EE allocate a dynamic IP address to fixed line broadband customers but is this a 'sticky' IP address or does it change immediately after doing a router reboot?
Many thanks
P

EE, Voda, 3 and O2 do not block Websites on there Mobile Data Networks, assuming Content Lock is off, some MVNO may do.
Again on Mobile Networks the IP Address is not fixed it's dynamicly assigned.
EE Broadband is basically BT so like most of the fixed Broadband providers it will or can Block certain Websites and the IP is normally static although they do reserve the right to change this at any time for non Commercial or non business customers

EE block no websites on their fixed Home BB unless mandated by a Court Order (IWF does not come into it). They will on mobile when you have Content Lock ON.
The Home BB public IP is dynamic but fairly sticky.

Thanks guys.
Next question, has anyone - as an existing EE mobile customer - managed to get the Fibre Max 900 service for less than £54/m? Because the price shows up as £54/m online whether an EE customer or not and when I called up EE Sales to query this, they said they can't go lower than that.

The online list price of Full Fibre Max 900 is £60 pm. So with the 10% discount for EE mobile custs that brings it down to £54 pm. So what you've been told is correct.

No, the price of £54/m for Fibre max 900 applies to both EE and non-EE mobile customers.
During the online ordering process if i enter my EE mobile number, i see the following:
And if i enter my other non-EE (Vodafone) number, then the following:

The pics need to be approved by a mod, I am sure it won't be long before they appear.

I have a valid EE 20% student discount code, I'm guessing this cannot be applied to a fixed line broadband order as there seems to be nowhere to put the discount code? I see the gift/voucher box when trying to place a dummy mobile order but nothing for fixed line broadband.
