A new company called Broadreach Networks has just thrown its hat into the increasingly crowded ring of operator’s that all intend to build gigabit-capable Fibre-to-the-Premises (FTTP) based broadband networks, but this one seems to be less of an ISP and more of a wholesale provider – with a focus upon smaller towns.
Fixed wireless UK broadband ISP Wildanet, which covers some rural parts of Cornwall in England, has today revealed that they’re looking to branch out into building a Fibre-to-the-Premises (FTTP) network that would cater for “homes and commercial premises in urban and rural areas” within the county.
The Mid Sussex District Council (MSDC) has announced that thousands of businesses, residents and communities across Mid Sussex will soon get access to a new “gigabit-capable” full fibre broadband network, which is being supported by an investment of £2.2m from the Government’s Local Full Fibre Network (LFFN) scheme.
Some customers of Zen Internet’s broadband and Ethernet services, particularly those whose connections terminate in London, are this morning suffering from some unusual internet connectivity problems, which means that your line may be live but a few popular online services (e.g. web browsing) will not be fully functional.
Gigabit broadband ISP Hyperoptic has today announced the introduction of a new “Hyperhub” router, the Nokia HA-140W-B, which promises a peak theoretical combined WiFi speed of 2.92Gbps but will only be available to new customers who take out one of their top 500Mbps of 1Gbps full fibre (FTTP/B) packages.
Some of Sky Broadband’s UK ISP customers, mostly those with one of their latest Sky Hub routers (SR203), are being faced with an intermittent bug that results in the WiFi connection giving an “access point temporarily full” message and disrupting local connectivity, even though the router is well below its device limit.
