What Broadband is available in the Outer Hebrides?
Most areas in the Outer Hebrides can now receive Broadband, in general the more densely populated areas, and their surroundings can receive it over the telephone line into their business or home if they are within range of an ADSL enabled BT Exchange (see ADSL BT Enabled Exchanges in Outer Hebrides). Areas that are out with the range of a BT Enabled Exchange, they can get access to the Internet through the Connected Communities SDSL connections going through the Internet Service Provider ‘Hebrides.net’. Currently Connected Communities are going through the final stages of installing Broadband Transmitters around the islands, so that the remoter areas that could not previously get Broadband shall be able to easily receive it. Area’s within a BT ADSL Enabled Exchange area can also get access to Broadband through Connected Hebrides if they are in the line sight of a mast.
