The Broadband Mast at the hollow • http://superfastswindon.com/

BROADBAND - What Your Parish Council Is Doing for You 1. Contacted BT – We’ve contacted BT and have identified the process that we need to go through, in order to obtain faster ‘Fibre Internet’ in our area 2. Promoted and gathered interest (where we are now) – We require households to register their interest in Fibre, so that we can understand which roadside cabinets will need to be updated (Thankyou residents) 3. Obtain Quote (Next Step) – Obtain a quote to upgrade to Fibre 4. Go or No Go – Determine whether the quote given is realistic, and then seek funding for its implementation

GET FASTER INTERNET SPEED How it Works - Don’t Miss Out • There are two main methods by which fibre broadband can be implemented, Fibre to the Premises (FTTP) and Fibre to the Cabinet (FTTC). • There are many roadside cabinets and over 800 residential premises (homes) in Wanborough. • Wanborough Parish Council require a quote from BT for the upgrade of each roadside cabinet and premises. • Households and businesses, who do not register their interest, could find themselves missing out on this opportunity for faster internet.

• Average fixed-line download speeds rose by 28% over the year to 46.2 megabits per second, while uploads gained by 44% to 6.2 Mbps. • The typical household now consumed 190 gigabytes of data a month, in large part due to the use of Netflix and other streamed TV services. Rural consumers still lag behind • Urban areas, 59% of connections delivered average speeds topping 30 Mbps over the 20:00-22:00 peak-time period - meeting the watchdog's definition of "superfast" - while 17% were under 10 Mbps. • Rural areas, only 23% of connections surpassed 30 Mbps over the same hours, while 53% were under 10 Mbps.
