At the moment, the technology used in most BT telephone exchanges limits download speeds to about 8 Mbps. We can get around this using Local Loop Unbundling or LLU methods and get that maximum up to more than 20 Mbps for our customer’s ADSL2+ connections, but BT is in the process of updating its exchanges ...
Although fibre optic broadband is only available across certain parts of mainland UK, it is set to become increasingly popular and there are plans well under way to increase availability to more areas. As many as 20 million homes and premises could have access to fibre optic home or business broadband by the end of ...
What home and business broadband services are available vary across the UK. It’s not necessarily true that if your company premises is located in a big city like Edinburgh, London, or Birmingham, you’ll have better access and wider choice.

The information is still passed through the copper wires of the existing telephone systems. ...
Whoever provides your personal or business broadband, the advertised download speed you signed up for is almost certainly the theoretical maximum that is available through that system. It probably isn’t the data transfer speed you are actually getting. It’s normal for upload speeds to be lower than download speeds. Some business broadband users may have ...
ADSL and SDSL are the two main types of DSL or Digital Subscriber Line broadband internet connection. We have introduced DSL systems before, but in short, it is a way of passing large amounts of data through existing copper wire telephone systems at high speeds. Because DSL is digital and uses a different frequency than ...
DSL stands for Digital Subscriber Line. It’s a way of getting broadband internet access through existing wire telephone systems. It uses the same infrastructure as a conventional dial-up modem, but operates at much higher speeds when both sending and receiving data. In general, an ADSL connection runs at a few megabits per second (Mbps), where ...
