If you are wondering if you have to have a BT telephone line to get broadband then the answer is yes. This may change in the future and is only in the very early stages of development to allow BT to be bypassed.

If you have cable available in your area then you may be able to get your internet through this with a cable modem. They offer similar speeds to broadband ADSL but you would have to check with your local cable supplier if this is available to you.

Companies such as Virgin Media offer an option to get broadband & telephone deals through them.
