Superhighspeed Internet
All around my area they are digging up the pavements and laying purple optical cable for our new superdupa internet. Om some streets where the house is adjacent to the road they are putting in little spur with a square metal cap like a stopcock. I live in an old house converted into flats so the cable just runs past with no spurs. A few questions for those that know.
Should you want to be connected to this facility who pays for the connection to your property and how much is a typical bill?
How does it work? Do they connect it to your telephone line so that it goes through your existing modem position or is it a separate circuit with a different connection in the house.
What speeds will they provide? At the moment I am on about 36 m/s which seems to cover most things. However if this system gets going I can see it replacing wired broadband in the same way as broadband replaced dial-up.
We are all standing around scratching our heads so some knowledgeable input would be welcome.
