We will help if we can. We are a small company currently inundated with requests from other areas of the UK following publicity of our subloop unbundling Fibre To The Cabinet (FTTC) project in Lyddington, Rutland. We don’t just talk about rural NGA – we have actually delivered it! Lyddington now has the fastest broadband in the UK via copper phone lines for any rural village. The results speak for themselves: Before deployment of FTTC, the average speed in the village was 0.5Mbps. BBC iPlayer and YouTube did not work. Large files could not be uploaded. The average sync speed is now 32Mbps (10-40Mbps range) and residents are watching streaming HD TV via their broadband.
