TalkTalk broadband are set to start trials of 40Mb fibre broadband in Muswell Hill (London) and in Whitchurch (Cardiff) that will start this month and run until January 2010.
With BT Openreach starting it’s installation of a next generation fibre network it allows other broadband providers to start offering the services made available on the BT network.
Those customers who will be on the fibre broadband trial via Fibre To The Cabinet (FTTC) will receive a new router and modem that will be able to handle the faster download speeds and also be given the Essential phone and Broadband package from TalkTalk free while they are taking part in the trial, although they will be required to pay the line rental charges. What’s more is that users as part of the trial will be given an unlimited download limit instead of the 40Gb limit they are usually limited to.
“With BT Openzone starting it’s installation of a next generation fibre network it allows other broadband providers to start offering the services made available on the BT network.”
- Would that not be BT Openreach?
