The Stoneybeck Event on Friday was very helpful in providing NGU Cumbria with the confidence of community demand for superfast broadband to extend its firm plans for coverage to include all of the areas presenting, based on community demand.
Getting people using superfast broadband means helping to get them connected at their homes or places of…[Read more]

Hi Charmi, What Chris says really is the best way to go and actually given enough community demand locally then there is no problem with affording the internet backhaul or “fat pipe” required to drive the network. You don’t need any CCC subsidy just a willingness to step up and demand better broadband as a [...]

Exceptionally well argued by Chris, Lins and Craig. Phil, you are right regarding both the rules for procurement and that subdivision (some might say localism) is the answer. Note to Alan, Jim and David at CCC: Assign Broadband Vouchers on a community need and demand basis, Final Third First Inside Out. This way CCC rewards [...]

Fibre policy: 1 year, 5 months agoExcellent post Tom.
If you look at policy in Holland post WW2, a key enabler of early FTTH deployment in the last decade was the mandating of common utility ducting and that approach has real merit in the UK too.
When I first delved into this subject a couple of years in the UK context, an interesting statistic popped up:
Based on residential…[Read more]

Thanks for your reply Charles which further confirms the state aid issues surrounding your commercial enterprise.
You will be pleased to hear that NextGenUs is progressing NGA delivery in your area.

Mapping: 1 year, 5 months agoPeter, agreed it is not just technically re ADSL lines - the real problem with all DSL technology is the basic inequity of copper line attenuation that disadvantages rural communities and this is why FttC is a digital deadend.
The terms “digital timeshare” and “exaflood” are neither designed nor intended to confuse you nor for that matter to…[Read more]

Very interesting news Charles.
What advice have you been given that EVD is to be a recipient of public subsidy and from whom?
Has BDUK advised you that they are a partner of EVD?
How does your involvement with EVD square with the blog post you made here http://lvcpnews.wordpress.com/2011/01/16/crosby-ravensworth-site-visit-from-nextgenus/

Mapping: 1 year, 5 months agoPhil, contended lines is not a myth that is emerging, it’s already well established.
Technically you are correct that contention as experienced with mass-market broadband in the UK today is a product of digital timeshare occurring beyond the local loop.
I did raise this with SpencerK and his explanation was convincing, to paraphrase:
People…[Read more]

It is an emerging myth that the *lines* are contended, but well established that the services are contended. ADSL lines are decidedly not contended, whereas cable and wi-fi is contended in the first metres/mile due to users sharing spectrum in a common media.
You can buy uncontended ADSL, but few do - demand failure.
So let’s stick to factual…[Read more]

Mapping: 1 year, 5 months agoWilliam, you are right on target re the need to actually capture data consistently.
The other factor to consider is the time of day each test is done as contended lines mean that the worst performance will be seen when the kids come home from school til bedtime.
Also worth noting that samknows are in bed with ofcom…[Read more]

Seems we have an emerging myth of “contended lines”. The lines are not contended, but the service usually is. Fibre services are also contended, aren’t they - like say 80 1G fibre connections to a 100M internet connection. Contention is everywhere, it makes stuff affordable and practical.
Speed tests are of little value if we’re talking about…[Read more]

Guy Jarvis commented on the blog post Ofcom - disconnected? 1 year, 6 months ago
Louis, 2013 is rather more serious than “a bit of a wait” and the real concern is your presumably informed observation that “it may take just as long to see the first benefits of BDUK’s £530m investment in fixed line broadband.” Decent broadband for Cumbrian communities is being delayed right now by the total lack [...]

Hi William,
Worth you having a look at Great Asby Broadband in Cumbria and also the NextGenUs Newton & Stape project in North Yorkshire - both use high speed wireless to provide broadband service.
