Meanwhile the boost to Gigabit speeds is all thanks to the latest <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/docsis\">DOCSIS<\/a> 3.1 upgrade.<\/p>\n<div class=\"bq2\"><strong>NOTE:<\/strong> D3.1 boosts performance by utilising things like Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM), which can encode data by using multiple carrier frequencies, and quadrupling the amount of radio spectrum (up to 200MHz).<\/div>\n<p>So far more than 2 million premises are already in the process of gaining access to this upgrade across big parts of Berkshire, Hampshire, Buckinghamshire (e.g. Greater Manchester, Southampton, Reading and many surrounding areas) and the West Midlands (i.e. Birmingham, Coventry and surrounding areas), while the rest of their network &#8211; 15 million+ premises in total &#8211; are planned to follow by the end of 2021.<\/p>\n<p>Otherwise we understand that the exact number of premises expected to benefit from this latest upgrade includes c.250,000 in <strong>Edinburgh<\/strong> and c.380,000 in <strong>Liverpool<\/strong>. In short, today&#8217;s announcement takes the aforementioned total to <strong>2.7 million premises<\/strong> with D3.1 capability (nearly 20% of their UK network) and it&#8217;s worth noting that Edinburgh is also the first city in Scotland to benefit from it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"bq1\"><p><strong>Jeff Dodds, COO at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/vm\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Virgin Media<\/a>, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Whether people are working from home, learning or gaming online, video calling friends and family or binging on a box set in 4K, with Gig1\u2019s hyperfast speeds, more than 17 times faster than UK\u2019s average, busy households can do everything they want online, at the same time, without delay.<\/p>\n<p>Through continued investment, we\u2019ll be bringing this next-generation connectivity to many more cities this year as we rollout gigabit broadband across our entire network at a speed and scale unmatched by anyone else. Whatever the future holds, we\u2019re connecting our customers to what\u2019s next.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Customers who take out the related <strong>Gig1Fibre<\/strong> package will be sent a new <strong>HUB 4.0<\/strong> (<em>TG3492LG-VMB<\/em> \/ <em>Gigabit Connect Box<\/em>) router and you can see the specification for that at the bottom of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/2019\/09\/revealed-expected-price-of-virgin-medias-uk-1gbps-broadband.html\">this article<\/a> from last year. The HUB 4.0 is VM&#8217;s only router with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/docsis\">DOCSIS<\/a> 3.1 support, although they have made the device available on some slower packages in certain areas so as to help tackle issues of high utilisation (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/2020\/04\/virgin-media-to-extend-hub-4-availability-for-wifi-boost-sort-of.html\">here<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>Prices for the new 1Gbps broadband package typically start at \u00a362 per month (standalone broadband) on an 18 month term and come attached to a guaranteed price freeze for at least 24 months. Customers can also take this alongside Virgin Media&#8217;s various Pay TV packages, albeit at extra cost.<\/p>\n<p>As before we should point out that the operator&#8217;s D3.1 upgrade currently only fully applies to their downstream connectivity, while the upstream side is still delivered using the old D3.0 network. As a result some of the latency improvements that come with the D3.1 upgrades won&#8217;t be introduced and upload speeds continue to be restricted to the same level as their 516Mbps plan.<\/p>\n<p>More areas will be announced &#8220;<em>later in the year<\/em>.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Broadband ISP Virgin Media (Liberty Global) will today announce that over 600,000 premises across the cities of Edinburgh and Liverpool are the next ones to get their latest DOCSIS 3.1 network upgrade, which makes 1Gbps broadband speeds available to local homes and businesses (i.e. average downloads of 1104Mbps and 52Mbps upload).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":22950,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[419,56,475],"class_list":["post-22948","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uk_isp_news","tag-docsis3-1","tag-fttp","tag-virgin-media"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":""},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.2 -
