Have a look at....

and try your postcode. Pot luck really.
If you can get ntl then go to

Free Installation at the moment.
Once installed get a router - I use US Robotics - 2 minutes to set up then surf all day.
Just remembered another system that has been trialled and is about to roll out.
This involves sending the signal down the mains line.
Look at (the biggest advert they could wish for)...

This system is causing great concern among a lot of radio people due to the probability of powerful harmonic radiation drowning signals above 30MHz. When your instruments go haywire at FL300 blame Scottish Hydro.
Of even more concern is the Irish plan....

Business News in Dublin's Irish Times today, 17 March, announces a nasty St
Patrick's day Plan.
Jamie Smith in 'Pilot projects to test new broadband technology' enthuses on
commercial possibilities of using mains power lines to send internet data by
short-wave radio frequencies on mains power lines, especially to remote and
rural areas, welcoming proposed government support for a pilot in the Republic
of Ireland. Earlier attempts suffered interference to the data from the mains
frequency, but, he seem to imply next try at it will use stronger short-wave
signals.
Soon, splattered all over Ireland's green hills and valleys could be lots of
radio frequency interference not only with local radio users in Ireland but
elsewhere in Europe and US as 'short-wave' signal propagation can be very
widespread indeed.
The IT article says that similar plans are afoot elsewhere in Europe etc.

Forget FM immunity if this comes to fruition.
