Cool Broadband access

Not strictly a military aviation topic (in fact, not even nearly one) however....

Are there any RAF stations that have any form of broadband access (NTL, BT etc ) available within either the married patches or domestic sites?

As a sad, lonely internet tosser I'm stuck with BT dial-up here at sunny Lyneham (deepest, darkest Wiltshire.....); I spoke to BT and they said exchange upgrades are being done on demand now i.e. if enough people from an area register an interest in the service then they will upgrade the exchange. Have BT upgraded the exchanges near any other "remote" RAF bases anywhere?

PS. Could everyone at Lyneham please go and register their "interest" in broadband, then they might upgrade our exchange and I won't have to wait quite so long for my daily skinfest to download.....oops
