Anyone Been in this Situation with Broadband?
A friend has recently moved into a small block of flats, all privately owned, run by a management company. She has health and mobility issues and placed an order for a broadband connection back in August. Only full fibre being offered in her location, no copper or part fibre.
So nearly a month after moving in she has no broadband yet due to Openreach advising major civil works will be required and now may not happen. There is very poor/non-existent phone signal in her flat so she can’t use a phone or connect laptop to essential services like NHS and banking etc. She is piggy backing onto a neighbour’s wi-fi, however, it is not stable and intermittent. All the neighbours are still on the old copper system, which will be disconnected in about a year.
Anyone any suggestions on how to get internet into a location like this while they figure out how to deliver full fibre? Annoyingly all providers are only offering full fibre in the location despite the lack of infrastructure. Starlink is expensive and doesn’t help with the phone.
