Our Broadband Help Guide section should hopefully help answer all your questions about broadband related issues. Any that are not then if you inform us about them in the forum we will try to get them answered for you as quickly as possible!

For starters we have made a simple guide entitled "What is Broadband, Beginners guide", basically it does exactly as it says on the tin. It tells you what broadband is and what the basic set up for broadband in your home would be.

We next have a guide to do with individual parts of the broadband set up, these go slightly into a bit more detail so if you have any problems that need a more specific answer then you may find them here. We have covered Routers, Modems, Micro Filters (Splitters) & Set Up.
