Rutland Telecom

Afternoon all,

Quote:
A UK village which raised £37,000 to offer 200 homes the super-fast broadband that BT could not deliver has launched its network.

Rutland Telecom will offer the residents of Lyddington speeds of up to 40Mbps (megabits per second).

Rutland Telecom

Quote:
We offer broadband services using ADSL2+, VDSL, SDSL, wireless and fibre-optics. We have implemented an IP-based network for voice & data in Rutland, previously a technologically-isolated rural community suffering from poor broadband speeds. We have invested in a gigabit network infrastructure which will satisfy Rutland's future demands for bandwidth such as BBC I-player and SKy HD. We offer the fastest upload and download speeds in the County and our bonded ADSL2+ residential service is the fastest in the UK.
Can somebody explain how you get Sky HD over fibre?? Don't you need a satelite dish for that??

BTW,

Chris - I know you've mentioned Rutland in another thread today, but I thought it deservered it's own and did'nt want to hijack the discussion on the other thread!
