Indeed the operator&#8217;s community focus gave it a distinct advantage because locals, many of whom have helped to build <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/b4rn\" target=\"_blank\">B4RN<\/a>&#8217;s network in return for shares, often feel both emotionally and financially incentivised to pick B4RN instead of BT.<\/p>\n<p>Since then BT&#8217;s activity in Dolphinholme seems to have been slowed or scaled back, while B4RN&#8217;s deployment has continued at full speed and the good news via <a href=\"http:\/\/br0kent3l3ph0n3.wordpress.com\/2014\/05\/07\/dolphinholme-overcomes-fud-to-light-up-on-b4rns-1gbps-fibre\/\" target=\"_blank\">Br0kenTeleph0n3<\/a> today is that the latter has now begun to connect the first local premises.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"bq1\"><p><strong>B4RNs Statement on Dolphinholme Progress<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;<em>I am delighted to tell you all that Dolphinholme now has hyperspeed broadband! Thanks to the \u2018fusing team\u2019 the Village Hall and the first few houses came online today. A fantastic effort by everyone concerned, those who planned, those to dug and those who did the \u2018technical stuff\u2019. A real community effort by everyone involved. Particular thanks to those who have given us access over their land, those who have invested time and money and those who have supported this is so many ways.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Of course there is still a huge amount to do and at the Fleece meeting this evening the DB4RNAG dedicated ourselves to completing this project, which means bringing the service to all those in Dolphinholme who want it. This will of course take time, but in the meantime having the Village Hall live means that there is a facility for anyone in the Village who needs to use it<\/em>.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>It&#8217;s understood that more houses are due to be connected over the next few days. Meanwhile B4RN is continuing its wider deployment across the region and has also been busy connecting homes in the larger village of <strong>Wray<\/strong> (home to around 500-600 people). However it would be interesting to see BT complete its own deployment\u00a0because we very rarely get to see areas with two competing fibre optic providers, especially on such a David and Goliath scale as this. So far David seems to be winning.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The predominantly community funded and built B4RN (Broadband 4 Rural North) network, which is deploying a 1000Mbps capable &#8220;hyperspeed&#8221; Fibre-to-the-Home (FTTH\/P) broadband platform in parts of rural Lancashire (England, UK), has beaten BT&#8217;s rival 330Mbps FTTP deployment in Dolphinholme by being the first to connect the Village Hall and several houses to its service.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[146,474,471,52,65,56],"class_list":["post-6716","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uk_isp_news","tag-b4rn","tag-bt","tag-bduk","tag-fibre-optic","tag-ftth","tag-fttp"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":""},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.9 -
