Due to these problems, over half (52%) of the respondents claimed they felt isolated at some point during the first national lockdown. Despite this the majority of the people (65%) intend to continue using video calling platforms.<\/p>\n<p>The study also found that while those in urban areas were more likely to feel isolated by poor home internet connectivity, rural respondents were more likely to do something about it. Some 60% of urbanites admitted they felt unable to communicate effectively with others at some points during this year, yet this was the case for only 43% living in rural areas.<\/p>\n<p>In terms of addressing these issues, 27% of all respondents said they would change ISP if the problems persisted, increasing to 39% for those living in rural areas. People are also relying increasingly on the availability of their mobile signal at home. When experiencing poor connectivity during a video call, 20% said that they will switch from their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/wifi\">WiFi<\/a> to their mobile broadband link.<\/p>\n<p>The study added that some consumers are also optimistic about the promise of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/5g\">5G<\/a>, with 26% thinking that it will help fix the nation&#8217;s &#8220;<em>digital divide<\/em>&#8221; in the future (increasing to 34% for those living in urban areas).<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"bq1\"><p><strong>Paul Carter, CEO of GWS, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The fact that a third of homes in the UK don\u2019t have sufficient speeds to perform routine tasks is disappointing. It\u2019s a real eye opener, particularly at a time when everyone is at home and relying on their networks more than ever. Like it or loathe it, life as we know it has changed and having a sufficient internet connection is essential for being able to work and live. Without reasonable throughputs, consumers risk feeling disconnected, frustrated, and anxious.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The result doesn&#8217;t come as a particular surprise, not least since around a quarter of the country still connect via slow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/adsl\">ADSL<\/a> based copper broadband lines, which is despite the fact that so-called &#8220;<em>superfast broadband<\/em>&#8221; (24Mbps+) capable fixed broadband networks currently cover almost 97% of UK premises. Suffice to say that take-up and awareness of faster packages remains an issue.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, it should be remembered that some of the issues identified in this survey may also be caused by other problems, such as slow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/wifi\">WiFi<\/a>, local network congestion, general network faults or incorrect configurations etc. It\u2019s not always due to a slow fixed line connection.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A new study by Global Wireless Solutions (GWS), which was conducted by Censuswide with 2,007 UK adults during September to early November 2020, has determined that only 64% of properties have a &#8220;decent broadband&#8221; (10Mbps+) service and a third (30%) are suffering from &#8220;inadequate throughputs&#8221; (i.e. sub-2Mbps speeds).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":24963,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[471,38,34],"class_list":["post-24962","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uk_isp_news","tag-bduk","tag-politics","tag-statistics"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":""},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.2 -
