The CEO of rural UK full fibre ISP B4RN<\/a> (Broadband for the Rural North), Barry Forde, has become the first person to sign-up to the provider’s new 10Gbps capable Fibre-to-the-Home (FTTH<\/a>) plan. The first live speed test of this produced a download speed of 8341Mbps and uploads of 6644Mbps, with latency of just 1ms.<\/p>\n

The new plan was officially launched back in April 2020 (here<\/a>), albeit mostly intended as a vehicle to help show what is possible on their live network. The reality remains that most people today can’t even take full advantage of a 1Gbps connection, let alone the dizzy heights of 10Gbps, due to various issues (e.g. slow WiFi<\/a>, misc. hardware limits and the various bottlenecks of remote internet servers etc.).<\/p>\n

NOTE:<\/strong> Accurately speed testing multi-gigabit lines via web based speed testing services is very difficult and often the test server itself can be a bottleneck.<\/div>\n

On top of that the monthly price of \u00a3150 inc. vat (plus a one-off installation fee of \u00a3360), which also includes ZYXEL’s new high spec AX7501<\/a> router with Wi-Fi v6, always seemed likely to discourage more casual interest. By comparison their standard 1Gbps tier is just \u00a330 per month (plus \u00a3150 installation) and that’s one of the very cheapest gigabit tiers in the UK, which is already more speed than the majority of people really need.. for now.<\/p>\n

“I moved myself onto the 10Gb service so that I could do some real world testing to see what is realistically achievable. Lab tests are all well and good but a real customer is better<\/em>,” said Barry to ISPreview.co.uk. The speedtest.net (Ookla) result was conducted using his personal home Desktop computer with an Intel x550 10G<\/strong> Ethernet card connected to their Zyxel router. The FTTH<\/a> line itself was linked at 10Gbps back to their Quernmore<\/strong> node around 2km away. “It’s a full production service, not a special rigged to give special results. This is what \u00a3150\/month gives you on B4RN<\/a><\/em>,” added Barry.<\/p>\n

Barry also took the opportunity to try and max out the WiFi<\/a> v6 (802.11ax) chipset on his Samsung S20 Ultra G5<\/strong> phone, which was linked to the same router in his home. The result produced a download rate of 865.27Mbps, uploads of 857.62Mbps and latency of 2ms (i.e. basically pushing the mobile as fast as it can go in a real-world setting) – clearly a 1Gbps line would be fine here.<\/p>\n

Granted this is all just a bit of fun, but it’s also a glimpse of where things will be going in the future as the march of progress continues. Meanwhile the provider itself, which operates as a community benefit society and is partially built with help from local volunteers, has so far connected thousands of homes and businesses to their new fibre optic cable across rural parts of Lancashire, Cheshire, Cumbria, Essex, Norfolk, Suffolk and Yorkshire.<\/p>\n

Going forward B4RN<\/a> aims to reach 40,000 properties passed by 31st March 2022 and possibly c.70,000 by 2025\/26 (details<\/a>).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
