Same problem here <1mb/sec.
Now running everything via a "3" Mi-Fi dongle.
I get 5mb/sec now.
Much better, only snag is 10GB limit per month and £15 per month too.
Still, so far so good and last month had about 500mb spare on the last day.
PITA though.

No, but I have vested internest in it and can read!!! The government plan to roll out broadband to all rural areas is over budget, behind schedule and most importantly in many cases does not deliver broadband speed anyway... it will come under even more scrutiny when the National Audit Office report is publsihed imminently... it isn't expected to be good reading.

This is a report by the government appointed auditors and says pretty much what I said.
Don't bother with the excuses as we all know I'm right!

where has the op or anyone has said anything about rural?
so you found a story to kind of fit into your statement , laughable.
you must know everything because you "read it on the internet'

No, I told you in the thread a few weeks ago that the National Audit Office were about to publish a damning report into the Broadabnd roll out in the UK...and now they have! You of course ignored it as you know better despite the fact you're an aerial fitter or some such nonsense yet talk about working with the infrastructure... next you'll be calling yourself an engineer

F1fan,
Luckily not all authorities should be tarred with the same brush.
Our contract has been awarded. 91% of region to be at a minimum of 24mbps and the remaining 9% will be at a minimum of 2mbps to 24mbps.
Deployment will be starting soon. This specific rollout covers 3 authorities.

So you are claiming the report done by the government'ss own audit office into the giovernment's own broadband roll out is completely wrong as obviously they have a vested interest in painting it in a bad light
You really do embarrass yourself sometimes. Now get back to wiring up a few old folks phones and shut the **** up for once

As an Internet developer I do get frustrated with the fact that in some areas we are woefully behind the rest of Western Europe...... we need to be leading this race not trailing behind like the fat kid on a school sports day!!

No it doesn't, please don't pretend you know or are responsible for anything important infrastructure wise as we all know it's bollocks although given the state of the project maybe you are in charge.

Whilst the historical situation is probably the real issue, looking to implement this kind of infrastructure project in the current climate certainly won't be helping situations, which I can personally appreciate. In a political environment things are never black and white unfortunately, which adds to the challenge.
Local Authorities are now being faced with up to 30% reductions over the next 3-4yrs....... that is severe by any stretch of the imagination. Sort of puts it all in to context.
BT was awarded the contract following a procurement exercise through the Government’s Broadband Delivery UK (BDUK) framework. BT is contributing £5.67m towards fibre deployment in “non-commercial” areas whilst this region is contributing £4.45m – with a further £4.45m coming from BDUK funds. Just over £14.5m investment in the region - not insurmountable investment and certainly a major project for the region.
