I live in the sticks in the east midlands and stuck to a snails pace 512mbs. This sounds ideal and I bet hundreds of times cheater than laying fiber everywhere. I still think it will be years until I get access to speeds over 2mb at least ...... :(
512mbs?? That's nothing to moan about ;)Quote:

Agreed, super-wifi does seem like an excellent plan for rural communities, though.

I live in London, Zone 3, around 800m from the exchange yet theres 3.5km of cable to the exchange from my house, think they should sort out London before anywhere else gets fibre optic cable.
Not interested in that new fangled Super WiFi, but I can appreciate the impact it'll have in some sectors.
