Hi

Longer longer the distance the worse it is. At 7km we were very lucky to get 1mb (direct line of sight we are only 3.5km from the exchange). To add to the fun there is another (rural) exchange that is far closer to us, but whose area stops about 20 yards away. Would have been far better for ADSL (but doubt it will get FTTC for years).

A couple we know bought a new build about 12 years ago. At the time BT have connected the whole estate with fibre. But at the time they wouldn't support any broadband over fibre! And no satellite dishes allowed. They were stuck with a modem long after our crappy long old cables supported ADSL.

All the best

Keith

Sky's homehub is the bottleneck according to the BT engineer that connected our fibre line. Here's the result from my wired connection:

Ok, I cheated - it's a tethered mobile rather than broadband!
