Fixed wireless access UK ISP Symmetris Broadband<\/a>, which together with their partners have already deployed a number of networks across rural parts of Norfolk and Suffolk in England (including some FTTP<\/a> via the Gigabit Village<\/a> off-shoot), appears to have recently been merged into sister operator WiSpire<\/a> (both are associated to InTouch Systems<\/a>).<\/p>\n

The change, which seems to have occurred around early April 2025, means that the Symmetris company “has now ceased trading and all contracts, accounts and services have been migrated over to our sister company WiSpire Ltd<\/em>.” Customers apparently suffered “no interruption in services and everything … [continued] as normal<\/em>.”<\/p>\n

WiSpire typically focuses on the same geographic area and originally made a name for itself by deploying wireless broadband networks from the top of church spires (hence the name). The company, which also runs ITSWisp and ITSFibre, was originally acquired by InTouch Systems back in 2018 (here<\/a>).<\/p>\n

The brief announcement doesn’t offer any further details, but we assume this is an attempt by the parent company to simplify their focus and remove duplication. At this stage it’s unclear how far Symmetris got with their full fibre project, although it did cover a number of small communities in Norfolk (e.g. the neighbouring villages of Pedham and Hemblington). But we haven’t had any new announcements from them since 2020.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
