We provide ADSL/FTTC services to about 50 of our customers. Being based about 20 miles away from London, we are finding plenty of places where services are so bad that the customer's only realistic solution is to move their offices. We as a country need to stop fannying around and actually get something done. At the moment we are trying to run a 21st century network (internet) over 19th century technology (copper). We should aim for full FTTP country-wide and cancel meaningless train infrastructure upgrades. Imagine the number of jobs it would create, and the benefits of universal fast connectivity.
